The 8th post in this Javaranch.com thread suggests that Tomcat uses DBCP connection pooling by default: http://www.midrangeserver.com/mpo/mpo081502-story04.html
That feature to indicate connection leaks sounds intriguing. I found the following in our server.xml and am wondering if this means we are definitely using this Commons DBCP: - <!-- Define the top level container in our container hierarchy --> - <Engine name="Standalone" defaultHost="localhost" debug="0"> - <DefaultContext crossContext="true"> <Resource name="jdbc/myResource" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource" /> - <ResourceParams name="jdbc/myResource"> - <parameter> <name>factory</name> <value>org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory</value> </parameter> I think we are NOT using it because we have some Java classes that are intended to handle connection pooling, and they look similar to some of the textbook ones floating around online. I'm just wondering if there would be connection pooling in place with the above XML if we didn't somehow override that with our own connection pooling classes. One other thing is that we currently have to use the JDBC-ODBC bridge, so I don't know if that would have anything to do with it.
