Configuring data-source

Question

Hi
I'm trying to configure a datasource in jdev using this guide(part 4):
http://doc.uni-klu.ac.at/doc/oracle/10g/as/b10464_03/web.904/b10322.pdf
Anyway, the application conists of two projects. I've added an application.xml file with a <data-sources element that points to my data-sources.xml. I simply edited the data source that was included in that guide to point to my database(connect string and credentials).
However, when I run this java code,
<code>
try
ic = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource) ic.lookup("jdbc/OracleDS");
Connection conn = ds.getConnection();
this.dbConnection_ = conn;
catch(NamingException ne)
System.out.println(ne.getMessage());
</code>
it returns "jdbc/OracleDS not found". I've also noticed some other config files in my application folder that i'm not sure about(app_name-data-sources.xml etc.).
Any help?

Thanks Deepak. I tried both, neither one worked.
The first time seemed close, this was the error: java:comp/env/jdbc/OracleDS not found in "Project Name"
It picked up my project name at least. If I have a view-controller and model both, which project should the application.xml and data-sources.xml be in?
When I tried this suggestion:
HashTable ht=new HashTable();
ht.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory");
ht.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,"ormi://localhost");
InitialContext ic=new InitialContext(ht);
I got a series of RMI errors. Connection refused.
