I have to acess a Database Connection object in my action bean. I am using
plain old vanilla JDBC(no Spring and Hibernate). I am setting the DataSource
object in ServletContext on application initialization and using this
DataSource object to get a DB Connection object whenever I want.
One approach that I can take is to get the Connection object directly from
the ServletContext in my method and use it. But the problem with this
approach is that I can't test my action bean stand alone (as the Connection
object is taken from the ServletContext).
To over come this I have provided a setter and getter for Connection in my
action bean and I use an Interceptor to inject the Connection object into my
bean before HandlerResolution life cycle stage. The advantage of this is,
now I can test my bean stand alone by setting my own Connection object and
when it runs inside a servlet container Stripes does the injection for me.
To close the connection also I am using an intercptor that closes the
connection after ResolutionExecution life cycle stage.
Is my approach correct or is there a better way to achieve what I want?
