Database connection pooling with weblogic 8.1.

Question

Hai All,
I am new to weblogic database connection pooling.
I am using Weblogic8.1 and want to use connection pooling to get a jdbc connection. my database server is Oracle 8.1.7.
Things which i have done using the weblogic admin console.
I have created a Jdbc connection pool named myconnectionpool.
I have created a datasource named mydatasource.
and named the JNDI as myjndi.
Is the above process correct to create the connection pool in the weblogic8.1.
I am not aware of the java code to get the database connection object from the connection pool which i have created.
can any one please let me know the java code to get the connection from the pool.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks in advance

Hai
I have tried using the code u have mentioned but it returned me
an error which is below.
C:\javaexamples\Javaprograms\JDBC>java jdbcexampleconnectionpool
javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Need to specify class name in environment or system property, or as an applet parameter, or in an application resource file: java.naming.factory.initial
I have added the following lines code, which i read in some weblogic documentation. The code i added is below and it worked fine.
ht.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory");
ht.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,"t3://localhost:7001");
Context ctx = new InitialContext(ht);I am not sure what the above code does.
Can anyone let me know what does the above code do.
Thanks a lot and i appreciate ur help,
Pooja.
