Re[2]: DataSource and initialContext.lookup("java:comp/env")

It's also helpful, I think, to look at a JNDI directory as a database
that's organized in a directory-like fashion. The database contains
objects, not arbitrary data, however. The "context" is effectively the
database name, and when you "lookup" something in the context, you're
effectively looking it up in that database. Don't confuse any of this
with the file-system directory out on your hard disk.
