//
// Here are the dbcp-specific classes.
// Note that they are only used in the setupDataSource
// method. In normal use, your classes interact
// only with the standard JDBC API
//
import org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource;

//
// Here's a simple example of how to use the BasicDataSource.
// In this example, we'll construct the BasicDataSource manually,
// but you could also configure it using an external conifguration file.
//

//
// Note that this example is very similiar to the PoolingDriver
// example.

//
// To compile this example, you'll want:
//  * commons-pool-1.5.4.jar
//  * commons-dbcp-1.2.2.jar
//  * j2ee.jar (for the javax.sql classes)
// in your classpath.
//
// To run this example, you'll want:
//  * commons-pool-1.5.4.jar
//  * commons-dbcp-1.2.2.jar
//  * j2ee.jar (for the javax.sql classes)
//  * the classes for your (underlying) JDBC driver
// in your classpath.
//
// Invoke the class using two arguments:
//  * the connect string for your underlying JDBC driver
//  * the query you'd like to execute
// You'll also want to ensure your underlying JDBC driver
// is registered.  You can use the "jdbc.drivers"
// property to do this.
//
// For example:
//  java -Djdbc.drivers=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver \
//       -classpath commons-pool-1.5.3.jar:commons-dbcp-1.2.2.jar:j2ee.jar:oracle-jdbc.jar:. \
//       ManualPoolingDataSourceExample
//       "jdbc:oracle:thin:scott/tiger@myhost:1521:mysid"
//       "SELECT * FROM DUAL"
//
