Take a look at jms-ds.xml The JNDI is java:/XAConnectionFactory. (You need to use the local JNDI for that... just do new InitialContext(). As you may known java:/ means local VM). you can just do: InitialContext ctx = new IntialContext(); | ConnectionFactory cf = (ConnectionFactory)ctx.lookup("java:/XAConnectionFactory"); | View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4242288#...
