Creagting connection pools dynamically and bind with TxDataSource

Question

          Hi!
          Is there a way I can create a dynamic connection pool and associate it to a DataSource
          using weblogic. I know I can't create a datasource dynamically, so are there
          any work arounds to bind the dynamically created connection pool to configured
          datasource.
          thanks,
          Srinivas

My application is required to support many different connections to different databases. I'll need to setup potentially hundreds of connection pools (and associated datasources). I was thinking of creating them dynamically through the app as needed.. but, wondering if I can get a way with creating all of them upfront (and setting the initial connections to 0). This way I can set all the database properties via WL console instead of hardcoding in the appl. I would like to know if there's a significant cost to creating datasources and connections pools upfront (even though they're initially not used). Please let me know how you would approach this. thanks.You can certainly create them ahead of time. No significant overhead from simply having
the pools. However, if you set them up to do periodic refresh they will involve some cycles.
