Robert,
EJB transactions are demarcated using the Java Transaction Service (JTS).
As such, the EJB server/container vendor must supply and implementation of
and JDBC driver for their JTS. With the WebLogic server (and I am sure
others provide similar functionality), you can set up connection pools
using any JDBC driver and then use the JTS JDBC driver, which uses the
connections from the pool.
Hope this helps,
Robert
