JBoss: Binding values into JNDI in JBoss EAP 6 similar to JNDIBindingServiceMgr

Question

1. How do I bind an arbitrary string to JNDI in JBoss EAP 6? I used to do it through org.jboss.naming.JNDIBindingServiceMgr MBean in previous EAP version.

Answer 1

In your app configuration you can have things in ejb-jar.xml deployment descriptor like

    JNDI logging context for this app
    logback/context-name
    java.lang.String
    our-app-context

or, if you prefer to have it in the server standalone.xml, do

the latter (standalone.xml) is a JBoss 7.1 feature, so available in EAP 6.0. In JBoss AS 7.0, a dummy application needs to be used according to this thread.
