- <p><b>For JBoss Web, unlike Tomcat 4.x, it is NOT recommended to place
- <Context> elements directly in the server.xml file.</b> This
- is because it makes modifing the <strong>Context</strong> configuration

- <li>In individual files (with a ".xml" extension) in the
- <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/</code> directory.
- The name of the file (less the .xml extension) will be used as the
- context path. Multi-level context paths may be defined using #, e.g.
- <code>foo#bar.xml</code> for a context path of
<code>/foo/bar</code>. The

- <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/</code>, in an
individual
- file at <code>/META-INF/context.xml</code> inside the application files.
If
- the web application is packaged as a WAR then
- <code>/META-INF/context.xml</code> will be copied to
- <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/</code> and renamed to

- deployment descriptor. You <strong>MUST</strong> also define
- the needed resource parameters as attributes of the <code>Resource</code>
- element, to configure the object factory to be used (if not known to JBoss Web
- already), and the properties used to configure that object factory.</p>
-
- <p>For example, you can create a resource definition like this:</p>
-<source>
-<Context ...>
- ...
- <Resource name="jdbc/EmployeeDB" auth="Container"
- type="javax.sql.DataSource"
- description="Employees Database for HR Applications"/>
- ...
-</Context>
-</source>
-
- <p>This is equivalent to the inclusion of the following element in the
- web application deployment descriptor
(<code>/WEB-INF/web.xml</code>):</p>
-<source>
-<resource-ref>
- <description>Employees Database for HR
Applications</description>
- <res-ref-name>jdbc/EmployeeDB</res-ref-name>
- <res-ref-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-ref-type>
- <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
-</resource-ref>
-</source>
-
- <p>but does <em>not</em> require modification of the deployment
- descriptor to customize this value.</p>
-
- <p>The valid attributes for a <code><Resource></code>
element
- are as follows:</p>
-
- <attributes>
-
- <attribute name="auth" required="false">
- <p>Specify whether the web Application code signs on to the
- corresponding resource manager programatically, or whether the
- Container will sign on to the resource manager on behalf of the
- application. The value of this attribute must be
- <code>Application</code> or <code>Container</code>.
This
- attribute is <strong>required</strong> if the web application
- will use a <code><resource-ref></code> element in the
web
- application deployment descriptor, but is optional if the
- application uses a <code><resource-env-ref></code>
instead.</p>
- </attribute>
-
- <attribute name="description" required="false">
- <p>Optional, human-readable description of this resource.</p>
- </attribute>
-
- <attribute name="name" required="true">
- <p>The name of the resource to be created, relative to the
- <code>java:comp/env</code> context.</p>
- </attribute>
-
- <attribute name="scope" required="false">
- <p>Specify whether connections obtained through this resource
- manager can be shared. The value of this attribute must be
- <code>Shareable</code> or <code>Unshareable</code>. By
default,
- connections are assumed to be shareable.</p>
- </attribute>
-
- <attribute name="type" required="true">
- <p>The fully qualified Java class name expected by the web
- application when it performs a lookup for this resource.</p>
- </attribute>
-
- </attributes>
-
-
- </subsection>
-
-
- <subsection name="Resource Links">
-
- <p>This element is used to create a link to a global JNDI resource. Doing
- a JNDI lookup on the link name will then return the linked global
- resource.</p>
-
- <p>For example, you can create a resource link like this:</p>
-<source>
-<Context ...>
- ...
- <ResourceLink name="linkToGlobalResource"
- global="simpleValue"
- type="java.lang.Integer"
- ...
-</Context>
-</source>
-
- <p>The valid attributes for a
<code><ResourceLink></code> element
- are as follows:</p>
-
- <attributes>
-
- <attribute name="global" required="true">
- <p>The name of the linked global resource in the
- global JNDI context.</p>
- </attribute>
-
- <attribute name="name" required="true">
- <p>The name of the resource link to be created, relative to the
- <code>java:comp/env</code> context.</p>
- </attribute>
-
- <attribute name="type" required="true">
- <p>The fully qualified Java class name expected by the web
- application when it performs a lookup for this resource link.</p>
- </attribute>
-
- </attributes>
-
- </subsection>
-
- <subsection name="Transaction">
-
- <p>You can declare the characteristics of the UserTransaction
- to be returned for JNDI lookup for
<code>java:comp/UserTransaction</code>.
- You <strong>MUST</strong> define an object factory class to instantiate
- this object as well as the needed resource parameters as attributes of the
- <code>Transaction</code>
- element, and the properties used to configure that object factory.</p>
-
- <p>The valid attributes for the
<code><Transaction></code> element
- are as follows:</p>
-
- <attributes>
-
- <attribute name="factory" required="true">
- <p>The class name for the JNDI object factory.</p>
- </attribute>
