When does dbcp close a connection?
Hi,
I have looked into the dbcp sources and getConnection just returns a
java.sql.Connection object. Does that mean that connection.close closes the
connection to the database? If not, when will be the connection really
closed?

Connection.close will return the connection to the pool.
After setting up DBCP yout code can basically stay the same.
To close the real connection to the database at application shutdown do:
connectionPool.close();
This will closed the actual connections to the databse.
I made a wrapper class for setting up DBCP and closing the connection pool.
