This was as suggsetion from Christian Rechner.
I think it's should be used the opposite way: You put a datasource in the
ServletContext elsewhere, e.g. in struts. In dbforms you can then reuse this
datasource with the contextDataSource attribute.
But if i looked into the sources there is missing something. The attribute
is in the DbConnection class but never used.
We should fix this.
