Absolutely - Johnny K's suggestion of doing a new every time is utter nonsense. > So is a connection a thread-safe object or not? No, a connection is not thread-safe: it is designed to be be used by only one thread at a time. If you have multiple threads accessing a connection object *simultaneously*, you will have problems. On the other hand, connection managers (e.g., the commons-dbcp code) are thread-safe; multiple threads may call one simultaneously to acquire connection objects, and each thread is guaranteed to be given a separate object. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
