tsx:dbconnect tag JavaServer Pages syntax (deprecated)

Use the <tsx:dbconnect> tag to specify information needed to make a connection to a database through Java DataBase Connectivity (JDBC) or Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) technology.

Support for tsx tags in the JavaServer Pages (JSP) engine are deprecated in WebSphere Application Server Version 6.0. Instead of using the tsx tags, you should use equivalent tags from the JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library (JSTL).

The <tsx:dbconnect> syntax does not establish the connection. Use the <tsx:dbquery> and <tsx:dbmodify> syntax instead to reference a <tsx:dbconnect> tag in the same JavaServer Pages (JSP) file to establish the connection.

When the JSP file compiles into a servlet, the Java processor adds the Java coding for the <tsx:dbconnect> syntax to the servlet service() method, which means a new database connection is created for each request for the JSP file.

This section describes the syntax of the <tsx:dbconnect> tag.

<tsx:dbconnect id="connection_id"
    userid="db_user" passwd="user_password"
    url="jdbc:subprotocol:database"
    driver="database_driver_name"
    jndiname="JNDI_context/logical_name">
</tsx:dbconnect>

where:

An empty element (such as <url></url>) is valid.
