running gcj compiled jboss client

Thu Aug 7 02:21:00 GMT 2003

Hi,
I was able to compile my jboss client with gcj as well as the jboss-j2ee.jar
that the client needs. The first thing it does is create an InitialContext
and then gets a remote object reference from it. The problem is that with
Suns java it works but with gcj a NamingException is thrown when I try to do
anything with the InitialContext. Is this a bug or am I doing something
wrong. Here is a code snippet to show what I mean. The NamingException is
thrown when I try to either lookup the home interface or even just list the
bindings as shown (using gcj 3.2.2 from RedHat 9)...
 // Get an initial context based on the jndi properties.
 InitialContext jndi = null;
 try {
 jndi = new InitialContext(properties);
 } catch (NamingException e) {
 System.out.println("NamingException getting Initial Context: " +
e.getMessage());
 return;
 }

 // Get a remote home reference.
 ScheduleRemoteHome home = null;
 try {
 NamingEnumeration enum = jndi.listBindings("");
 System.out.println(enum.toString());
 //Object o = jndi.lookup("ScheduleEJB");
 //home = (ScheduleRemoteHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(o,
ScheduleRemoteHome.class);
 //home = (ScheduleRemoteHome) o;
 } catch (NamingException e) {
	 // THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS WITH GCJ, but not Sun
 System.out.println("NamingException Getting Home");
 return;
 }
