I am trying to implement Apache Tomcat 8.5.15 "Tomcat JDBC Connection Pool" using the steps mentioned in the guide.
Can some one help me to understand how this connection pooling has to be done. Is the Plain Java Method,by implementing Pool Properties is an alternative to the JNDI lookup based pooling ? When I implement using Pool Properties, there isn't any provision to set up the Factory to org.apache.tomcat.jdbc.pool.DataSourceFactory" and I always get invalid arguments in call. On a different note, I tried by adding to context.xml . And implementing JNDI lookup from context. But that time,I get "org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp2.BasicDataSource cannot be cast to org.apache.tomcat.jdbc.pool.DataSource" even after setting factory to DataSourceFactory. -- Regards, Avinash K
