JDBC pooling is pretty standard in containers these days, Tomcat included. ;) The code side of this picture is pretty portable: look up a DataSource via JNDI, use that to fetch connections. The configuration side is container-specific. Tomcat has excellent docs on this at the website. If inter-container portability is a great concern (e.g. you sell your app to external clients), you could also manage the pool yourself using the commons-dbcp package. -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
