If this is a service that more than one user can access I'd recommend you use commons connection pooling to handle your connections. That way you just ask for a connection when you need one, and the commons library handles the creation. Its not going to work very well if multiple requests are being serviced using a single JDBC connection - and I'm not even sure if it is threadsafe to do so.

If you deploy this service in Application Scope, then there will be one and only one instance of this service throught out the life time of the application.
This way you only create your database connection once.

So the answer is yes.

    Hi all,
    I would like to ask u, how can i utilize database connection in my
    web
    service. I have one web service with more methods in it. Id like
    to create
    database connection just once and not with each call (each
    operation works
    with the same database connection) Is it enough to create this
    service with
    application scope?

    It looks like this:

    Available services
    stkdds

    Service Description : stkdds
    Service Status : Active
    Available Operations

        * getFinishedOrderBin
        * getOrderInfo
        * updateOrder
        * getUserInfo
        * cancelOrder
        * updateUser
        * testOperation
        * getOrdersOverview
        * getAllAccountsInfo
        * getFinishedOrder
        * getAccountInfo
        * newOrder


    And my code for database connection smth like this:

    public Connection setConnection() throws Exception {

            if(conn != null){
                    return conn;
            }

                 Class.forName("org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDriver");
                    conn = DriverManager.getConnection (p_connect_string,
    sqlProps);
                return conn;




    Thanks Vladi
