How to Use Connection Pool in servlets from web server

[Thummalashankar Reddy]

Hi Team,

I want to use connection pool from web server in servlets.
I have a little bit idea about Connection pool usage.
But i dont know which one is better.

First
I am creating the Connection pool in the server console and simply by using
ContextFactory i am getting the connection in the servlet

Second

I am creating the Connection pool in the server console and i specified the resource_ref in web.xml ,i am getting the connection in the servlet with out specifying the context factory


which one is better and why?

Thanks & Regards
