When creating an initial context for a J2EE application, you can construct the initial context in two ways:

InitialContext context = new InitialContext(); // No arguments

InitialContext context = new InitialContext(Hashtable hash); // Hashtable argument

I don't understand how you can create a connection to JNDI without specifying the properties (e.g. server URL) such is the case with the no argument constructor?

Please help, anyone.

Hey there is this very good explanation to what you are looking for, provided by Kenneth Saks ,J2EE SDK Team,SUN Microsystems in the Java Technology forum @ http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=13&thread=548263&tstart=0&trange=15



Essentially what he is saying is that "It's up to the container to bootstrap the naming service. The application code accesses all resources via java:comp/env." Now what this means is that you configure your application server and provide the neccessary info for bootstraping in-order to use the no argument constructor.



Hope this helps.
