Method Detail

getUserTransactionJndiName

String getUserTransactionJndiName()

Gets the JNDI name to lookup the User Transaction.
WebLogic for example uses: javax.transaction.UserTransaction but WebSphere uses java:comp/UserTransaction.

Returns:

The JNDI name to lookup the User Transaction.

getCurrentUser

String getCurrentUser()

Gets the name of the currently logged in user.
Some application servers return the wrong name when a run-as user has been used. Instead of the currently logged on user the run-as user is returned. This method should always return the currently logged in user!

Returns:

The name of the currently logged in user.
