    Connection connection = null;
    try {
        // Load the JDBC driver
        String driverName = "oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver";
        Class.forName(driverName);
     
        // Create a connection to the database
        String serverName = "127.0.0.1"; // Your database host name
        String portNumber = "1521";  // Communication Port
        String sid = "mydatabase"; // Database sid
        String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@" + serverName + ":" + portNumber + ":" + sid;
        String username = "username";
        String password = "password";
        connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url, username, password);
    } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
        // Could not find the database driver
    } catch (SQLException e) {
        // Could not connect to the database
    }
    Hope this will help.

    A pool is just that - a pool. Mr.777 code only creates a connection, not a pool. If you wish to create a pool, then just create a List of connections for clients to grab a Connection from. You have provided little information or context to the problem, so it is guessing to provide context beyond this. If this is a webapp, many application containers already provide libraries to create connection pools - do the research on your particular container if this is the case.

    Also, your problem lies in the wrong code section, most of the poblems here are desktop oriented. So i was unable to guess.
    Also, you didn't provide enough information.
    Anyways, follow the copeg suggestions.
    Good Luck. And better read this...

    thank you guys.
    well i updated my question just have a look!
    do i need to create DSN for using it with the Application server??
    @copeg --> indeed even i said that in my reply.

    application containers already provide libraries to create connection pools
    Does this is
    ojdbc14.jar
    what you are pointing to??

    @mr. 777 -->
    Also, your problem lies in the wrong code section, most of the problems here are desktop oriented. So i was unable to guess.
    Also, you didn't provide enough information.
    well i can't undo that, i created thread here because i thought my problem is something related to JDBC/Databases!!

    I think there is enough information provided now, well if you feel there is something missing then do a fav. by asking for it?
    Regards

    Actually, I moved your post to this forum

    Like I said, you can create a pool manually by creating some type of class that manages a list of created connections. See the following link: Chapter 8 Continued: Connection Pooling

    What application container are you using?

    There is no problem with any container you use.
    You can use any one of your choice or your application requirements.
