Howdy, >1. What does the ValidationQuery* parameter actually do in DBCP?
I would assume (too lazy to check) it's a sanity check SQL query allowing the pool to validate the state of a connection before handing it to a client or after receiving it back from a client and before returning it to the pool. >2. In server.xml, what does the cachingAllowed^ property of Context do? Gets propagated to the directory context in order to let you specify the dir context resources shouldn't be cached.
