Hi Scott,
Not sure if you want to consider this, but I thought I'd suggest it anyway
;-)
I always put things like this in a small jar file (usually called common.jar).
I fill it with things such as common class for looking after datasources,
messages, resources, etc. Often there are specific business logic classes as
well. This has the advantage in that all projects (Struts, application, etc)
that use this jar file, all access these central resources in the same way.
in addition commonly used functions, logic, etc is centralised. This always
saves me time and effort in the long run.
With regard to datasources, by doing this I can then use standard JDBC and my
struts applications can remain blissfully ;-) ignorant of where the data is
coming from.
