Description Justin Spadea CLA 2011-09-22 12:09:20 EDT 
A @Resource binding can be URI-based, and there are various formats of the URI. We need the ability to register various handlers of such bindings in the runtime.

For example, there would be a handler set up by the test server for workspace:// bindings, so that at runtime it can create an SQLDataSource with the information coming from a workspace connection profile.

There would probably be another handler (built into the runtime) for jndi:// URIs.

Justin,

Is this something that could alter our current design significantly, or is it incremental work to implement our existing design?

If it is incremental work, can this be deferred out of .7 until 1.0?  Also, is this a defect or an enhancement?

This is for 1.0. For 0.7.0 we just have built-in support of certain URIs (workspace, and soon jndi). We will generalize it when there's more time.
