Re: Help Needed with Connection Pooling for Java Swing Based

I just ran your test case and everything seems to be working correctly
as far as I can tell. The program creates one and only one connection
to the database. I don't see multiple connections created as you are
reporting.

I don't know anything about swing, but it is clear that the code for
swing you have below isn't correct. Because with this swing call the
program doesn't exit. It seems the swing code is starting some other
threads that are running and thus the main program doesn't exit until
those threads stop running (and I don't know what swing calls are
necessary to stop the swing threads from running).

So with the swing call in place I have to ctrl-C to stop the app from
running, but from the jdbc side of things everything seems to be working
correctly.

Perhaps I don't understand the problem you are seeing?

thanks,
