It's probaly not a timeout of the connection object, but one of the database server. If the database server has a timeout for open connections, the connection on the driver side is 'open' but not functional any more. What exactly happens depends on the driver. (I've seen posts where people reported that isClosed() still return false in such a case for a certain driver). My last contact with oracle is to long ago to be more specific. But I know that there is a default timeout for connections in oracle (No, I can't remember how to query or set it).
