Re: [jetty-dev] Transactions necessary for db pooling with JNDI??

[Jan Bartel <janb@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Will,

Have you declared a <resource-ref> in your web.xml for the datasource?
Declaring it in a jetty config file declares it to the container, and
puts it into the container's naming tree. Declaring a <resource-ref> in
your web.xml says that you want a resource from the container's 
environment hooked into your webapp, as per the javaee/servlet spec.

cheers
Jan
