Web module message destination and resource environment reference bindings [Settings]

For each reference, specify the JNDI name under which the resource is known in the runtime environment.

Binding a resource reference maps a resource dependency of the web application to an actual resource available in the server runtime environment. At a minimum, this can be achieved by using a mapping that specifies the JNDI name under which the resource is known in the runtime environment. By default, the JNDI name is the resource ID that you specified in the web.xml file during development of the web application bundle (WAB).

The rows only contain the JNDI names of resource mapping targets for your references if you bound them together during application assembly. You can modify those bindings on this administrative console page.

To view this panel in the administrative console, click one of the following paths:
  • Applications > Application Types > Business-level applications > application_name > [Deployed assets] Add > Add Asset > asset_name > Wizard step: Web module message destination and resource environment reference bindings
  • Applications > Application Types > Business-level applications > application_name > composition_unit_name > [Additional Properties] Web module message destination and resource environment reference bindings
Note: The Web module message destination and resource environment reference bindings option is only visible if the bundle includes a web application.

General Properties

Composite bundle identifier

This identifier is only displayed if the EBA asset uses composite bundles. Each composite bundle is identified by a string in the following form: Composite bundle archive (CBA)'composite.bundle.symbolic.name_composite.bundle.version'. Bundles that are part of a composite bundle are listed beneath the composite bundle identifier.

Composite bundle symbolic name
The non-localizable name for this composite bundle.
Composite bundle version
The version of this composite bundle.

The symbolic name, together with the version, identifies a unique composite bundle.

Bundle symbolic name

The non-localizable name for this bundle.

Bundle version

The version of this bundle.

The bundle symbolic name, together with the bundle version, identifies a unique bundle.

Reference name

The name of a resource reference that is used in the application, if applicable, and is declared in the deployment descriptor of the WAB.

Resource Type

The type of the resource reference.

You can use this panel to specify bindings for any message-destination-ref (message destination reference) resource or resource-env-ref (resource environment reference) resource, as defined in the Java specification JSR-250: Common Annotations for the Java Platform. For example, the following are all types of message-destination-ref resource:
  • Default messaging JMS queues destinations
  • Default messaging JMS topic destinations
  • JMS queue destination for WebSphere® MQ
  • JMS topic destination for WebSphere MQ
Note: To specify bindings for a resource-ref (resource reference) resource, use the Web module resource reference bindings [Settings] panel.

JNDI name

The Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) name of the resource that is the mapping target of the resource reference.
