Accessing MySQL datasource bean in Spring

I am trying to create a datasource bean for MySQL from within my Spring project (in springtoolsuite), and I want to access the MySQL JNDI (run by JBoss application server).

My Bean declaration

<bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean" scope="singleton" >
<property name="jndiName" value="java:/MySqlDS" />
<property name="resourceRef" value="true" />

And from JBoss console:

java: Namespace
+- MySqlDS (class: org.jboss.resource.adapter.jdbc.WrapperDataSource)

However when I ran my test application, I got the following. What have I done wrong?

    Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'dataSource' defined in file [/workspace-sts/test1/cspringbean.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Need to specify class name in environment or system property, or as an applet parameter, or in an application resource file:  java.naming.factory.initial

I would also suggest taking a look at the JEE namespace rather than defining the factory bean

<jee:jndi-lookup id="dataSource" jndi-name="jdbc/MyDataSource"/>

See http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/2.5.6/reference/xsd-config.html

This message in the stack trace leads me to believe that either you didn't set up a JNDI data source pool in JBoss or your JNDI name is incorrect. Check both.

UPDATE: How is your app doing the JNDI lookup with JBOSS? If you aren't deployed in an app server, then you should be using the DriverManagerDataSource, not the JNDI data source.
