Frank,
You can get a connection through the PortalStatistics object.
PortletContext context = getPortletContext();
PortalStatistics statistics =
(PortalStatistics)context.getAttribute(CommonPortletServices.CPS_PORTAL_STATISTICS);
statistics.getDataSource();
Before you can reference CPS_PORTAL_STATISTICS you have to edit the
WEB-INF/jetspeed-portlet.xml file. If it doesn't exist in your project then
you need to create it. Mine is listed below with a bunch of Jetspeed
services I use.
