Hi, I am not exactly sure what you meant by "you don't have to do that" ? For example, how would a class differentiate between org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory and org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory without doing anything? Off course the import declarations have to be changed and classes recompiled for classes using them directly. My usage of it was container manage and requires reformatting <Resource> therefore I don't have the need for recompilations. Perhaps a new DTD will help clarify what should be in the context.xml file. My comments were more of "heads-up" to people doing a conversion to the newer 5.5.7 and newer.
