"Use c3p0 with JBOSS AS 7.1.1"

Hello everyone,

I read in c3p0´s manual:  http://www.mchange.com/projects/c3p0/#jboss-specific 
http://www.mchange.com/projects/c3p0/#jboss-specific  that it is possible to 
use c3p0 library inside JBOSS as an MBean.
Once configured correctly, I would like to reference the new 
C3P0PooledDataSource in my Java WAR through its JNDI name. As I am using Spring
it would be something similar to:

[src/webapp/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml]

*<jee:jndi-lookup id="dataSource" jndi-name="java:PooledDS" />*

However, I don´t know how to configure this library properly. I tried to place 
*c3p0-0.9.2.1.jar* and *c3p0-service.xml* in the folders commented in the manual
but I had no luck  :( . So:

* *Is it possible to use c3p0 connection pool inside JBOSS AS 7.1.1? How should 
I configure it?*

I started to "play" with c3p0 because of its large number of configuration 
properties, but I don´t know if c3p0 is better than embedded JBOSS pooling 
capabilities.

* *Does c3p0 library deserve to be used instead of JBOSS embedded connection 
pool (i.e. configuring the datasource with the admin console/web) ?*
        I am currently developing a project which uses a MySql database.

I appreciate any comments to these matters.*
