Hi everyone!

I'm fairly new to java and have a quick question I hope someone can answer. We are using Websphere 3.5 and up until this point have been using JDBC without connection pooling. Now I am tinkering with connection pooling and have a question. Does connection pooling leave locks on the files that it accesses? It seems to be on my system. If so, does that mean the only way to make database changes (using sql) is to shutdown the Websphere application? Or, is my implementation trying to use connection pooling incorrect in some way?

Thanks for your help in advance!
