All you can do with WLS is define the driver class. You can't define a data
source class to replace the one it uses internally. As for creating and binding
an instance of OracleConnectionCacheImpl, here are the basic steps:
OracleConnectionPoolDataSource ds =
new OracleConnectionPoolDataSource();
OracleConnectionCacheImpl cache =
new OracleConnectionCacheImpl(ds);
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
ctx.bind("jdbc/myDS", cache);
Of course, you'll need to configure the ds and cache objects appropriately.
Once the cache object is bound, you should be able to do the usual:
DataSource myDS = (DataSource)ctx.lookup("jdbc/myDS");
Connection conn = myDS.getConnection();
The difference is that you'll really be handed back Oracle implementation
classes instead of the app server's.
