I have an
EJB question that I wanted to raise here.
I am using DataSource objects in the EJB application and using the app server provided connection pooling capabilities. The application server is iPlanet 6.5 and the database is DB2.
We also have a customer connection pooler that was written here for web applications that were not using EJBs. Now I want to ask that what horrible things can happen if we don't use the app server connection pooling and start using the customer pooler that was developed here in our EJBs. Is it a requirement in the EJB specs that we only can use DataSource objects in the EJBs that are registered with the Application Server. Would the transaction management be effected since the DataSource is not registered with the App Server?
Any input would be appreciated.
