This is correct. The problem is that a datasource is not a CORBA object, so it's not stored in the
CosNaming service. Incidentally, this is one of the problems with writing code that explicitly
instantiates a specific naming provider. In the Java EE programming model, the container
is responsible for bootstrapping the appropriate naming service so the gory details are hidden
from the application. We provide a way to access physical resources from outside an EE
environment, but we recommend using the EE approach.
