New JSP Sample Apps

Question

New sample applications demonstrate a range of JSP techniques, from basic to advanced. OTN provides two versions of the samples: one version is built to the Servlet 2.0 specification and runs under Oracle9iAS-JServ or JDeveloper, the other verion is built to the Servlet 2.2 specification and runs under the Oracle Servlet Engine (OSE) built into the Oracle8i database or the mod_ose module of Oracle9iAS.
Some samples require the Travel Schema, which populates the database with information about hotels, rooms, and reservations. You can download it from OTN.

Hi Alain,
The ConnectionPooling mechanism is very useful on the middle-tier for improving the performance. It may not show improvement in performance when running inside the database since there is no overhead of establishing a connection.
We have included the above note in the Readme file of the OSE version for clarification. We have included the sample just to demonstrate using the feature on the server side.
Second question, if the bean is running on
mod-OSe of IAS not in the database, can you
use also kbrb?Actually, mod_ose acts as a conduit from Apache to the OSE. Even in the mod_ose version, the sample still runs in the Database OSE and hence using kprb driver.
Using mod_ose to access OSE has advantages. Please refer to the following links which talks more on OSE/mod_ose.
1. Oracle Servlet Engine User Guide - In this, Chapter 5 has specific details on mod_ose : http://technet.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/java.817/a83720/introduc.htm
2. Support for Oracle Jsp in different Oracle Environments : http://technet.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/java.817/a83726/orajspo2.htm
Hope that helps,
Srinivas.
