-------------------------------------

             Summary: binding subcontexts with <lookup> does not work
                 Key: AS7-6655
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-6655
             Project: Application Server 7
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Naming
    Affects Versions: 7.1.3.Final (EAP)
            Reporter: James Livingston
            Assignee: Eduardo Martins


If you attempt to bind a subcontext via <lookup> in the naming subsystem it will fail when anything is looked up under it.

To reproduce, add <lookup name="java:jboss/ds" lookup="java:jboss/datasources"/>, and then look up something under java:jboss/ds/



In ServiceBasedNamingStore.lookup() it needs to return a ResolveResult, but the (!(obj instanceof NamingContext)) check skips it.

As a work-around, you can write an object factory which looks up the sub-context and then returns a wrapper around it, a Context implementation which simply delegates all methods to the original context. Since that wrapper is not a NamingContext instance, it works.
