Sue,
I had the same kinda situation you do and heres what I did:
1:> I have two beans- A LoginBean and a DBManagerBean( handles all database
related tasks incl. connections)
2:> I call the LoginBean from JSP and then from LoginBean I instantiate my
DBManagerBean and make a connection to the database
3:> Then I put the LoginBean in the session
session.putValue("login",LoginBean);
4:> I which ever JSP page or bean I need the LoginBean reference, I just
call
LoginBean _loginBean = (LoginBean) session.getValue("login");
5:> and then do something like this to get the DBManager Connection
Connection conn = _loginBean.getDBManager().getDBConnection();
6:> Also I made my LoginBean implement HttpSessionBindingListener so if I
lose the session, I can do some cleanup stuff
In my case, the lifetime of both the beans were session, since I used my
backend security to do the user validation but using a similar kind of
setup u can also use the Database connection pooling mechanisms, the only
difference is going to be that the DB Connection Pooling bean would have to
be of "application" scope
Hope u find is helpful...

Subject: Re: passing objects between beans.
Hi,
I have login page that sends login information from a form in a jsp to a
bean that
creates a connection to a database. I'm then trying to pass this connection
into
another bean that executes a query. Has anyone passed objects from one bean
to
another?
