Hey Abiya,

I tried in init() method of a servlet container too. it works fine. Here is the test servlet

import java.io.IOException;

import javax.naming.Context;

import javax.naming.InitialContext;

import javax.servlet.ServletException;

import javax.servlet.annotation.WebServlet;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

import javax.sql.DataSource;

 

 

@WebServlet("/test")

public class TestGateway extends AbstractGateway {

 

          private static final long          serialVersionUID          = 5756805325624066368L;

 

          @Override

          public void init() throws ServletException {

                    super.init();

                    DataSource ds = null;

                    Context ctx = null;

                    try {

      String strDSName = "java:jboss/datasources/Test";

      ctx = new InitialContext();

      ds = (javax.sql.DataSource) ctx.lookup(strDSName);

      System.out.println("Success getting DS : " + ds.getClass());

                    } catch (Exception e) {

      System.out.println("Error getting DS : " + e);

  }

          }

 

}

When I execute http://localhost:8080/test/test

I got my output like this in console.

16:11:51,818 INFO  [stdout] (http--0.0.0.0-8080-2) Success getting DS : class org.jboss.jca.adapters.jdbc.WrapperDataSource

So, I think there should be some problem in your Servlet or I am not able to get your problem. Can you detail a little bit in your case.
