They are deprecated; targeted for removal; and for a good reason, since it's a bad practice to have a data source served by the web app., a container provides a data source. In esence, maybe legacy jar should not be included any more, it has been a while since 1.1 released.
There is to much talk about data connection's as it is on user.
(I wish more be taged as deprected :logic/bean, since in the future... they will be and there was a comment on dev list that no one is keen to patch, so just give users a signal )

Currently 1.1 does not ship with commons jar files needed to get Struts datasources working.
You need booth commons-pooling and commons-dbcp to get Struts Datasources to work, but they are *not* included with Struts 1.1. (In fact in Struts 1.1., you also need Struts Legacy jar file as well.)
I think this got through because if you are using Tomcat then both commons-pooling and commons-dbcp ship in the shared folder. You do need to download them if you are using another application server. You do need to download them only if you are going to use Struts Datasources. My understanding was that Struts would ship with the entire set of commons jar files needed to utilize all of the features of Struts. Are Struts Datasource EOL or something?
