I do it in a different way :

I have a servlet in charge to set all pools, and I have a class with statics methods to manage the pools, creating, test, and show their use.
This class is shared with all contexts through a jar in common/lib.


So I have a servlet, with all configuration of the pools in param in the web.xml. this servlet can create pools (in its init method), test and show it, and show statistics.
I works great, and I can share a pool among contexts.
I use the bitmechanic connection pool, a little old, but still works. http://www.bitmechanic.com/projects/jdbcpool/dist/jdbcpool-1.0b1.zip I put the jar of the pool in the common/lib dir. I f anyone is interested in the ConnectionManager, I can share it, it's an eclipse project with ant build file that generates both war and the lib jar.


Hope it can help :)

Hi, I have configured the commons-dbcp datasource as a JNDI resource for MSSQL and Oracle and all is working as expected. However, as I understand, it is only possible to keep a factory as a resource and so a new datapool must be created everytime a JNDI lookup is done. I would like to share a single connection pool among different contexts.

My first attempt was to create a listener that put a single instance of a pool into the JNDI only to find that it is read-only. For my next attempt I am thinking of creating a javabean with a static collection of datasources and name keys that can be gotten as a JNDI resource so that the different applications can just retrieve the bean and do a lookup of the datasource that way.

Am I missing an easier or better way to do this? I do not have any experience with Javabeans and based on the stuff I've seen on the web beans are usually graphic oriented. Is this an appropriate use of a bean (or perhaps an Enterprise Javabean)?

Thank you in advance,
Scott
