I have a threaded chat server application which requires MySQL authencation.
Is the best way to have 1 class create the MySQL connection, keep that connection open and let every thread use that connection but use own Query handler?
Or is it better to have all threads make a seperate connection to MySQL to authencate?
Or is it better to let 1 class handle the queries AND connections?
We are looking at a chatserver that should be able to handle upto 10.000 connections/users.
I am now using c3p0, and I created this:
public static void main(String[] args) throws PropertyVetoException
{
ComboPooledDataSource pool = new ComboPooledDataSource();
pool.setDriverClass("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
pool.setJdbcUrl("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db");
pool.setUser("root");
pool.setPassword("pw");
pool.setMaxPoolSize(100);
pool.setMinPoolSize(10);
Database database = new Database(pool);
try
{
ResultSet rs = database.query("SELECT * FROM `users`");
while (rs.next()) {
System.out.println(rs.getString("userid"));
System.out.println(rs.getString("username"));
}
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
System.out.println(ex.getMessage());
}
finally
{
database.close();
}
}
public class Database {
ComboPooledDataSource pool;
Connection conn;
ResultSet rs = null;
Statement st = null;
public Database (ComboPooledDataSource p_pool)
{
pool = p_pool;
}
public ResultSet query (String _query)
{
try {
conn = pool.getConnection();
st = conn.createStatement();
rs = st.executeQuery(_query);
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
}
return rs;
}
public void close ()
{
try {
st.close();
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Would this be thread safe?
