方式一：
?在Spring的"applicationContext.xml"中的dataSource bean定義——
?

< bean? id ="dataSource"
????class ="org.logicalcobwebs.proxool.ProxoolDataSource" >
???? < property? name ="driver" >
???????? < value > com.mysql.jdbc.Driver </ value >
???? </ property >
???? < property? name ="driverUrl" >
???????? < value > jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/dbname?user=yourname &amp; password=yourpass </ value >
???? </ property >
???? < property? name ="user" ?value ="yourname" ? />
???? < property? name ="password" ?value ="yourpass" ? />
???? < property? name ="alias" ?value ="Pool_dbname" ? />
???? < property? name ="houseKeepingSleepTime" ?value ="90000" ? />
???? < property? name ="prototypeCount" ?value ="0" ? />
???? < property? name ="maximumConnectionCount" ?value ="50" ? />
???? < property? name ="minimumConnectionCount" ?value ="2" ? />
???? < property? name ="simultaneousBuildThrottle" ?value ="50" ? />
???? < property? name ="maximumConnectionLifetime" ?value ="14400000" ? />
???? < property? name ="houseKeepingTestSql" ?value ="select?CURRENT_DATE" ? />
</ bean >

第一種方式需要把用戶名和密碼寫在連接串里面，
ProxoolDataSource類提供的user，password屬性似乎沒有什么用。
無論提供什么，它都會以空用戶名、密碼去連接數據庫。
這可能是Proxool RC0.93的一個bug。
不過配置中的user，password兩個屬性還必須設置，否則hibernate會報空指針錯誤。

方式二：
?在Spring的"applicationContext.xml"中的dataSource bean定義——

< bean? id ="dataSource"
????class ="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource" >
???? < property? name ="driverClassName" >
???????? < value > org.logicalcobwebs.proxool.ProxoolDriver </ value >
???? </ property >
???? < property? name ="url" >
???????? < value > proxool.Pool_dbname </ value >
???? </ property >
</ bean >

?

第二種方式需要預先在"web.xml"先配置好Proxool連接池，配置如下：

?

< servlet >
???? < servlet-name > proxoolServletConfigurator </ servlet-name >
???? < servlet-class >
????????org.logicalcobwebs.proxool.configuration.ServletConfigurator
???? </ servlet-class >
???? < init-param >
???????? < param-name > xmlFile </ param-name >
???????? < param-value > WEB-INF/proxool.xml </ param-value >
???? </ init-param >
???? < load-on-startup > 1 </ load-on-startup >
</ servlet >

< servlet >
???? < servlet-name > context </ servlet-name >
???? < servlet-class >
????????org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderServlet
???? </ servlet-class >
???? < load-on-startup > 2 </ load-on-startup >
</ servlet >

注意，第二種方式下Spring的上下文加載如果想使用listener方式(Struts2要求)，
則與連接池有關的Bean全得延遲初始化。因為listener比servlet優先初始化，
如果相關Bean不是lazy-init的話，則啟動服務器時會出現Bean找不到連接定義的異常。

?<listener>
??<listener-class>
????? org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener
??</listener-class>
?</listener>

其中proxool的配置文件可以采用xmlFile"proxool.xml"或者propertyFile"proxool.properties"

"proxool.xml"格式如下：

<? xml?version="1.0"?encoding="UTF-8" ?>
< proxool-config >
??? < proxool >
?????? < alias > Pool_dbname </ alias >
?????? < driver-url > jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/dbname </ driver-url >
?????? < driver-class > com.mysql.jdbc.Driver </ driver-class >
?????? < driver-properties >
?????? < property? name ="user" ?value ="yourname" />
?????? < property? name ="password" ?value ="yourpass" />
?????? </ driver-properties >
?????? < house-keeping-sleep-time > 60000 </ house-keeping-sleep-time >
?????? < maximum-connection-count > 20 </ maximum-connection-count >
?????? < minimum-connection-count > 2 </ minimum-connection-count >
?????? < prototype-count > 0 </ prototype-count >
?????? < simultaneous-build-throttle > 20 </ simultaneous-build-throttle >
?????? < house-keeping-test-sql > select?CURRENT_DATE </ house-keeping-test-sql >
?????? < statistics > 15s,10m,1d </ statistics >
?????? < statistics-log-level > INFO </ statistics-log-level >
??? </ proxool >
??? < proxool >
???? <!-- 可以配置多個庫 -->
??? </ proxool >
</ proxool-config >

"proxool.properties"格式如下：

jdbc- 0 .proxool.alias = Pool_dbname
jdbc- 0 .proxool.driver-url = jdbc:mysql://localhost: 3306 /dbname
jdbc- 0 .proxool.driver-class = com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
jdbc- 0 .user = yourname
jdbc- 0 .password = yourpass
jdbc- 0 .proxool.house-keeping-sleep-time = 60000
jdbc- 0 .proxool.house-keeping-test-sql = select?CURRENT_DATE
jdbc- 0 .proxool.maximum-connection-count = 10
jdbc- 0 .proxool.minimum-connection-count = 3
jdbc- 0 .proxool.maximum-connection-lifetime = 18000000
jdbc- 0 .proxool.prototype-count = 3
jdbc- 0 .proxool.simultaneous-build-throttle = 10
jdbc- 0 .proxool.recently-started-threshold = 60000
jdbc- 0 .proxool.overload-without-refusal-lifetime = 50000
jdbc- 0 .proxool.maximum-active-time = 60000
jdbc- 0 .proxool.verbose = true
jdbc- 0 .proxool.trace = true
jdbc- 0 .proxool.fatal-sql-exception = Fatal?error

jdbc- 2 .proxool.alias = Pool_dbname2
……
<!--可以配置多個庫-->

-----------------------------------------------------------

個人比較傾向于第二種配置方式，
一來可以避免在Spring的"applicationContext.xml"中寫一大堆參數，
尤其是避免了driverUrl中帶用戶名密碼（這會顯示在proxool包中帶的
org.logicalcobwebs.proxool.admin.servlet.AdminServlet輸出的頁面中）

二來proxool連接池可以在tomcat啟動時就初始化好，可以提高第一次訪問web時的連接速度。

spring中以dataSource方式使用proxool連接池
