[jboss-user] [JNDI/Naming/Network] - It works but I don't know why!

Hi, please help me with a technical question: Does JBoss automatically wrap a Driver object into a Datasource? In "mysql-ds" I specify the jndi-name and the driver for a database: <jndi-name>/j2ee</jndi-name> <connection-url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/j2ee</connection-url> <driver-class>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driver-class> But in a servlet I can do this: ds = (DataSource)cxt.lookup("java:j2ee") That is, the lookup returns a datasource, although the Driver specified in "mysql-ds" does not implement that interface! That leads me to the question: Does JBoss automatically wrap a Driver object into a Datasource object? If yes, where can I find any documentation for this behavior? Thanks for any hints Christian View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3978155#...
