Evan,
What you are doing does not seem necessary depending on the server that you
are using.
Keep in mind that ejbs are of a transactional nature and do not really need
to use them to initialize a pool. I am using the Weblogic server and it
comes with a pooling feature and I believe most servers do.
Some where in your servers configuration properties should be a setting to
create a pool. This is will be initialized upons startup. Do create your
own solutions. You can then use something like :
Properties props = sessionContext.getEnvironment();
String url = props.getProperty("url");
return DriverManager.getConnection(url);
to get a connection.
Hope this helps.
