> I am getting a MalformedURLException when I instantiate a URL with the "jndi" protocol.  Here's some example JSP code:
>     final ServletContext ctx = session.getServletContext();
>     final String resourcePath = "/WEB-INF/web.xml";
>     final URL url = ctx.getResource(resourcePath);
>     final String externalForm = url.toExternalForm();
>     // The value of externalForm is something like
>     // "jndi:/localhost/problem/WEB-INF/web.xml".
>     // The following line fails under some specifi situation
>     // -- read on :)
>     new URL(externalForm);
> This code usually works as expected.  However, if I deploy and access the BIRT WebViewerExample application (BIRT
> is an Eclipse.org project), the 'new URL("jndi:....")' line fails with the following stack trace:
>   java.net.MalformedURLException: unknown protocol: jndi
>       at java.net.URL.(URL.java:544)
>       at java.net.URL.(URL.java:434)
>       at java.net.URL.(URL.java:383)
>       at org.apache.jsp.index_jsp._jspService(...)
>       ...
> This is really puzzling because the URL class remembers the protocol handlers, and I have already instantiated a URL for
> "jndi" successfully.
> I have tried to reproduce the problem on Tomcat 5.5.20 and 5.0.28, without success.  So it seems to be a JBoss specific
> problem.  I'm using JBoss 4.0.4 GA on Linux; JVM build is 1.4.2_11-b06.  The version of BIRT I use is 2.1.1.
