If you are using Tomcat, I believe you can change it in the
C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.xx\conf\server.xml file. Something like this:

Subject: DataSource Question

I'm using the following code in a servlet to get a JDBC connection:

Context ctx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource) ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/DBNameDS");
Connection conn = ds.getConnection();

It works fine... but I would like to be able to substitute "DBNameDS"
with the actual name of the ds as defined in the web.xml file.

How can this be done?

Jack
