Recovering lost connections whether implemented with a class hierarchy or composition is an extremely bad idea. If DBCP is designed to allow pluggable behaviors in general and someone decides to implement connection recovery for their application, that's their problem. We shouldn't be promoting poor practices by supporting connection recovery directly from DBCP. David > > - Rod <http://radio.weblogs.com/0122027/> > > On Sat, 28 Jun 2003, Noel J.
