element. The globally defined resources can be accessed using web applications by

specifying links to the global resource in the web application itself.

The following are the types of resources:



Data Sources (of type javax.sql.DataSource)



Mail Sessions (of type javax.mail.Session)



Environment Entries (of various Java language types such as

java.lang.Integer and java.lang.String)



User Databases
