Hi Ivan,
To answer your question:
First you will have to create a class derived from DBDatabase which defines the
schema of your database.
You then have to open the database when your application starts.
This will attach the driver to the database, but I will not block resources
like e.g. a connection.
In most cases this class will be a singleton.
Hence you may e.g. use a static accessor like this:
private static MyDatabase myDb;
public MyDatabse getDatabase() {
if (myDb==null)
myDb=new MyDatabase();
return myDb;
}
Regards

Betreff: Best practice to access a DbDatabase?
Hi,
a month ago (June 2014) there was a discussion already about connection pooling
but I have further questions. I use some kind of connection pooling and
Spring's JdbcTemplate, so I have a separate connection for each threads. But
how should I access a DbDatabase instance? The db instance is tied to the
actual connection, so separate threads can't use the same db instance.
1. Create a new DbDatabase instance for every query/updates/insert. Can it
cause any problems, if a lot of instances are created every second? I mean
there are static variables which are storing some global states
(DbDatabase.databaseMap, DbTable.tableCount etc.)
2. Use some kind of pooling on the DbDatabase.
Thanks,
Ivan
