I've heard that the data-source definitions in struts-config.xml use Common's DBCP, just like Tomcat 4.1-5.0 uses for it's connection pooling. Is it then safe to say that implementing a data-source via struts-config.xml will give you the same connection pooling architecture as configuring it in Tomcat's server.xml? What is the difference between the two? I'm guessing that if you configure in struts-config.xml, you have to access your connection in an action, and if you do it in Tomcat, you can access it via JNDI. Is that a fair analogy?
Thanks, Matt
