Ah yes I agree, but that's not quite what I was saying. Eric, sorry if that was misleading.
Eric has a <resource-ref> already. I meant that if you have <resource-ref> you do not need <Resource> as well in TC, because this is what the TC docs say, and the <Resource> tag is a TC "invention" rather than something required by the servlet spec. I think Yoav is saying that in fact TC allows you to be slightly loose by omitting the <resource-ref> as long as you have the <Resource>, even though strictly speaking you are not spec-compliant if you do this. > -----Original Message----- > From: Shapira, Yoav [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday 05 November 2004 13:32 > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: RE: connection pooling > > > > Hi, > > >Eric - you are correct, you do not need both <resource-ref> and > <Resource> > > That's only because we try to accommodate less able > developers/administrators.
