Class AS400JDBCConnectionPool

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable

    public class AS400JDBCConnectionPool
extends ConnectionPool
implements Serializable
    Represents a pool of JDBC connections that are available for use by a Java program.

    Note: AS400JDBCConnectionPool objects are threadsafe.

    The following example creates a connection pool with 10 connections. 

    
  // Obtain an AS400JDBCConnectionPoolDataSource object from JNDI.
  Context context = new InitialContext(environment);
  AS400JDBCConnectionPoolDataSource datasource = (AS400JDBCConnectionPoolDataSource)context.lookup("jdbc/myDatabase");

  // Create an AS400JDBCConnectionPool object.
  AS400JDBCConnectionPool pool = new AS400JDBCConnectionPool(datasource);

  // Adds 10 connections to the pool that can be used by the application (creates the physical database connections based on the data source).
  pool.fill(10);

  // Get a handle to a database connection from the pool.
  Connection connection = pool.getConnection();

  ... Perform miscellenous queries/updates on the database.

  // Close the connection handle to return it to the pool.
  connection.close();  

  ... Application works with some more connections from the pool.

  // Close the pool to release all resources.
  pool.close();
