Hello All,

I am trying to write my own rule to use in validation to check values against a database. Is there a graceful way of accessing the C3P0 Pool I created in the ApplicationManager?

I know in my actions, I can refer to input.getValue("pd_conn"), but what is the best way in a rule to access the database? I know I could build a separate connection pool, but I anticipate a number of rules, and I would rather not have that many pools....

Any input is welcome.

navigo, in my opinion, those kind of validation are too much specific and should be made in the action's code.

RubemAzenha,

Thanks for the feedback. I think I have done that. What I have is using the validation to make sure the input is sane, then I use a "check" method to further check the input - i.e. I use checkEdit or checkAdd which checks the results from an Add or Edit.

Thanks again.
