Configure DB Connection Pooling - Axis2 webservice - oracle

Question

I'd like to know how to modify the server.xml file so all my webservices built on axis2 can talk to the DB using Connection Pooling. Each webservice has a different data source, one points to one instance of the DB and the other to another DB server. How do I specify the context that should be used by each service?
Thanks in advance,
Pojo

If you want to use connection pool in your project , Ensure that you have the following code set up for the Tomcat connection pooling to work in context.xml file:
1)Create file with name "context.xml" if it's not exist under directory "WebContent/META-INF/context.xml" with the following content:
For My Project , Please modify it with appropriate value :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context path="/dbcp" docBase="dbcp">
<Resource name="jdbc/TestDB" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
removeAbandoned="true" removeAbandonedTimeout="30" maxActive="80"
maxIdle="30" maxWait="10000" username="sontn" password="nhantien"
driverClassName="org.postgresql.Driver"
url = "jdbc:postgresql://localhost/group8" useUnicode="true"
characterEncoding="utf-8" characterSetResults="utf8"/>
</Context>
Or you can copy file : context.xml into directory "$Catalian\webapps\axis2\META-INF"
How can you get connection pool?
In your webservice method : create method getConnection() with following content:
public Connection getConnection() {
Connection connection = null;
try {
Context envCtx = (Context) new InitialContext().lookup("java:comp/env");
DataSource ds = (DataSource) envCtx.lookup("jdbc/TestDB");
connection = ds.getConnection();
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Connection error: " + e.getMessage());
}
return connection;
}
