/**
 * A simple appender that publishes events to a JMS Topic. The events
 * are serialized and transmitted as JMS message type {@link
 * ObjectMessage}.

 * <p>JMS {@link Topic topics} and {@link TopicConnectionFactory topic
 * connection factories} are administered objects that are retrieved
 * using JNDI messaging which in turn requires the retreival of a JNDI
 * {@link Context}.

 * <p>There are two common methods for retrieving a JNDI {@link
 * Context}. If a file resource named <em>jndi.properties</em> is
 * available to the JNDI API, it will use the information found
 * therein to retrieve an initial JNDI context. To obtain an initial
 * context, your code will simply call:

   <pre>
   InitialContext jndiContext = new InitialContext();
   </pre>
  
 * <p>Calling the no-argument <code>InitialContext()</code> method
 * will also work from within Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs) because it
 * is part of the EJB contract for application servers to provide each
 * bean an environment naming context (ENC).
    
 * <p>In the second approach, several predetermined properties are set
 * and these properties are passed to the <code>InitialContext</code>
 * contructor to connect to the naming service provider. For example,
 * to connect to JBoss naming service one would write:

<pre>
   Properties env = new Properties( );
   env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
   env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://hostname:1099");
   env.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
   InitialContext jndiContext = new InitialContext(env);
</pre>

   * where <em>hostname</em> is the host where the JBoss applicaiton
   * server is running.
   *
   * <p>To connect to the the naming service of Weblogic application
   * server one would write:

<pre>
   Properties env = new Properties( );
   env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory");
   env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://localhost:7001");
   InitialContext jndiContext = new InitialContext(env);
</pre>

  * <p>Other JMS providers will obviously require different values.
  * 
  * The initial JNDI context can be obtained by calling the
  * no-argument <code>InitialContext()</code> method in EJBs. Only
  * clients running in a separate JVM need to be concerned about the
  * <em>jndi.properties</em> file and calling {@link
  * InitialContext#InitialContext()} or alternatively correctly
  * setting the different properties before calling {@link
  * InitialContext#InitialContext(java.util.Hashtable)} method.
