How to change client URL using JNDI

[Jim Talbut <jt...@spudsoft.co.uk>]

Hi,

I have the following in my spring beans.xml
<jaxws:client id="wsClient"
               serviceClass="bib.bob.bab.InternalPortType"
               address="http://172.28.5.234:8080/feed" >
</jaxws:client>

<http:conduit name="http://172.28.5.234:8080/services.php?s=vacancyfeed">
     <http:client ReceiveTimeout="1000" ConnectionTimeout="1000"  
Connection="Keep-Alive" />
</http:conduit>

This means that I need to recompile and redeploy my war file in order  
to change the web service address.
I would like to do this using JNDI so that I can deploy the same war  
to testing and live environments, but I can't work out how to do it.

Is there are way to set the URL (and conduit) from JNDI using spring?
If not, how can I change the URL of the generated client from code?

Thanks.

I really don't know enough about JNDI to answer this.   However,  there are 
two thoughts:

1) You could use a spring PropertyPlaceholder (google it) to put the URL's and 
such into a properties file that is different for local and production or 
similar.    The address would look like:
address="${my.service.url}"
or similar.   I don't know if the PropertyPlaceholder thing can pull props 
from JNDI.

2) Set it all programmatically:
URL is easy:
(BindingProvider)wsClient).getRequestContext().put(
    BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS, "http://.....");

The conduit settings are documented at:

http://cxf.apache.org/docs/client-http-transport-including-ssl-support.html

See the section on "Using Java Code"
