When the method does AS400JDBCConnectionPool.getConnection(), it will
return a java.sqlConnection object to the caller. I'm assuming that the
close() method of this returned Connection object is being overriden to
not close the connection. Instead, it put it back to the pool. That is
just my guess. The doc does really say anyhting about this. Can anyone
confirm?

Yeah, I was wondering about that myself ... I poked in the code a bit
and didn't find anything that explicitly returned the connection to the
pool ... but there seems to be a few events that are managed that might
still do that.

None the less, the answer to Lim's question is still yes, you should
close the connection when you are done with it. And don't depend on
garbage collection to do anything for you.
