I'm not quite sure why you'd want that scenario. It kind of defeats the
purpose of using a JNDI datasource, no?
The whole idea is push the low level db interaction down to the container
level. All the properties of the datasource are configured on the server
(i.e. usernames, passwords, pool properties). From an application
perspective, all that is needed is the JNDI name to the datasource.
