I'm trying to run my application in an embedded tomcat server using Spring-boot. I'm having my JNDI Resources and Environments configured in an XML file, placed under src/main/webapp/META-INF/context.xml in my application. When I deploy this application in a standard servlet container it works. But when I start it using an embedded server it does not recognize the JNDI resources that are present in the context files.
I tried adding the context file to the embeddedTomcatContainer programatically by using the following code. Referred from this blog -
@Bean
public TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory tomcatFactory() {
return new TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory() {
@Override
protected TomcatEmbeddedServletContainer getTomcatEmbeddedServletContainer(
Tomcat tomcat) {
tomcat.enableNaming();
Context context = new StandardContext();
File f = new File("D:\\Workspace\\SpringBoot\\src\\main\\webapp\\META-INF\\context.xml");
try {
context.setConfigFile(f.toURI().toURL());
tomcat.getHost().addChild(context);
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
return super.getTomcatEmbeddedServletContainer(tomcat);
}
But I'm getting the following Exception. Can someone please let me know how to add context.xml files to embedded tomcat server ?

EDIT:
I also tried some more tomcat APIs to load the context.xml file (which has several JNDI Resources and Environments defined) to the embedded server instance, but I keep getting a Null Pointer Exception. PFB the different APIs that I tried to use.
1. tomcat.addContext("/my-boot", System.getProperty("user.dir")+ "/src/main/webapp/META-INF/context.xml");
2. StandardContext context = new StandardContext();
context.setDefaultContextXml(System.getProperty("user.dir") + "/src/main/webapp/META-INF/context.xml");
tomcat.getHost().addChild(context);
For both the approaches I'm getting a NullPointerException while tomcat is trying to get the name of my resource. By the name of the API methods, I feel that there should be a way to get this done. Please assist with this.

xml. The second option is to set the context path of the application in the server. xml (which is located at $CATALINA_HOME\conf). Note: defining the context path manually has the side effect that the application is deployed twice by default: at http://localhost:8080/ExampleApp/ as well as at http://localhost:8080/.
Individual XML files located in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/ The name of each individual XML file will define a new context path.
Tomcat supports nested context paths. These are embedded in the WAR filename after a single hash character. For example, if you deploy a WAR file called demo#v1. war , it will be made available under the demo/v1 context.
