Method Detail

getInitialContext

public javax.naming.Context getInitialContext(java.util.Hashtable hash)
                                       throws javax.naming.NamingException

Creates an initial context based on the Context.PROVIDER_URL entry passed in the hash parameter.

The syntax for the URL is [[NetWare://][<SapHost>]/"Trees | Servers"/<DomainName>] If the URL is not set or is empty, a NetWareInitialContext will be returned. The optional SapHost is for backwards compatability with older client libraries only. The NetWare name space tries SLP to list the available trees and servers and ignores the SapHost name. If SLP is not available on an older client, the SapHost will be queried by the NetWare name space when it lists trees and servers. If the SapHost is not set, a default session will be used. If the remaining portion of the URL contains a domain name, either a Tree context or a Server context will be returned.

The NetWare name space will use the default public SessionManager unless the com.novell.utility.naming.Environment.SESSION_MANAGER_OBJECT key is set in the Hashtable parameter.
