So tell me about InitialContext()

[TMSTKSBK]

My school has told me to break this open-source web app written in Java.

I'm trying to oblige.

Unfortunately, I don't know what this string:

Object dataSource = ((Context) new InitialContext().lookup("java:comp/env")).lookup("jdbc/itrust");

translates to.

Helps?

I'm not an expert, but I fail to see how a Java project for your school is a core mod for RunUO.
