There are several Database Connection Pools already available, both within Jakarta products and elsewhere. This Commons package provides an opportunity to coordinate the efforts required to create and maintain an efficient, feature-rich package under the ASF license. The commons-dbcp package relies on code in the commons-pool package to provide the underlying object pool mechanisms that it utilizes.
This package contains one public class which is a
ConnectionPoolDataSource (CPDS) implementation that can be used to
adapt older Driver based jdbc implementations.
