I think the JMX MBeans would be the correct way for this -- however I've not worked with them, so cannot provide any direct information, only this vague pointer. Another way could be to use the capabilities provided by the underlying DataSource implementation. F.ex. if the used DataSource implementation is OracleDataSource, you could recast the ds object you get from JNDI back to OracleDataSource, and call getUrl() on that. But this completely depends on the database and DataSource you're using, while the JMX approach would be usable for any JNDI resource. -- ..Juha --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
