Howdy, Senor Shneyderman's answer was fully correct. >So, according to the Servlet spec, I need to declare my resource needs in >web.xml; then it's up to the container to provide those resources, and the

Every server has its own configuration syntax. All of them will resolve your web.xml declarations as required by the servlet specification. >I think the fact that I was using a GlobalNamingResource was clouding the >issue; if I wanted this DataSource to be available only to this app, I >could >supply declaration in web.xml, and configuration in the <Context> OR both >the resource declaration and configuration in the <Context> (but the latter >would be non-portable). Is this correct? Exactly right. In fact I would suggest the middle approach (declaration in web.xml, configuration in <Context>) unless you have an overriding reason not do it.
