Hi, Using connection pools with tomcat or any other J2EE app server or even with most Java programs is really simple. many are free, for example : - www.bitmechanic.com offer JDBC connection pool for free, you only need to write a startup servlet that suits your style. - CodeStudio offers poolman for free, available from sourceforge.com - tyrex jdbc connection pool mechanism comes with Tomcat as explained :
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/jndi-resources-howto.htm l Many of the comercial JDBC 2.0 drivers also offer connection pooling, sometimes more optimized than the generic solutions (above). I guess because Tyrex-connection pooling is provided with tomcat your post was probably not off topic. The problem IS simple, solve it and you become one of the "Tomcat/JDBC gurus". while (lev.hasMoreQuestions()) { mailingList.ask(lev.getQuestion()); } [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -----Original Message----- > From: Lev Assinovsky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 5. mars 2002 20:46 > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: Re: DB Connection Pool > > > No, Emir! > Sorry, I don't agree with you. > 1.
