About the JNDI Adapter
The Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) adapter allows you to connect to the various naming and directory interfaces that are accessible using the JNDI system.
The JNDI Service Provider Interface (SPI) provides the means by which naming and directory services are integrated into the JNDI framework. To connect to a directory, the JNDI adapter requires the appropriate JNDI Service Providers.
Using action and query webjects, the adapter communicates with both Info*Engine and the JNDI system, which controls the directory.
