    PostgreSQL™ includes one implementation
    of ConnectionPoolDataSource named
    org.postgresql.ds.PGConnectionPoolDataSource.
   
    JDBC requires that a
    ConnectionPoolDataSource be configured via
    JavaBean properties, shown in Table 11.1, “ConnectionPoolDataSource Configuration Properties”,
    so there are get and set methods for each of these properties.
   
Table 11.1. ConnectionPoolDataSource Configuration Properties
| Property | Type | Description | 
|---|---|---|
| serverName | String | PostgreSQL™ database server host name | 
| databaseName | String | PostgreSQL™ database name | 
| portNumber | int | TCP port which the PostgreSQL™ database server is listening on (or 0 to use the default port) | 
| user | String | User used to make database connections | 
| password | String | Password used to make database connections | 
| defaultAutoCommit | boolean | Whether connections should have autocommit enabled or disabled
        when they are supplied to the caller.  The default is false, to disable autocommit. | 
Many application servers use a properties-style syntax to configure these properties, so it would not be unusual to enter properties as a block of text. If the application server provides a single area to enter all the properties, they might be listed like this:
serverName=localhost databaseName=test user=testuser password=testpasswordOr, if semicolons are used as separators instead of newlines, it could look like this:
serverName=localhost;databaseName=test;user=testuser;password=testpassword
