This last form is the most complete one. Anyway, that will not make a difference, 
since it is up to JDBC driver to parse this URL AND JDBC DRIVER WORKS.

I've tried running Tomcat under JBuilder. I did get into debugging session, but when 
it came to XML parser, it just, sort of, dropped into a hole. I needed sources for XML 
parser, too. At that point I've had had too much and decided to wait for DBCP.

Craig has done it and although he is one of the developers, he was unable to help us. 
I guess it is not just for fashion, that they have decided to drop Tyrex in favour of 
DBCP.

Nix.
