How to set up datasource with Spring for HikariCP?

Question

Hi I\'m trying to use HikariCP with Spring for connection pool. I\'m using jdbcTempLate and JdbcdaoSupport.
This is my spring configuration file for datasource:

Answer 1

you need to write this structure on your bean configuration (this is your datasource):

    
    
    
    
    

    
        
            ${dataSource.url}
            ${dataSource.username}
            ${dataSource.password}
        
    




    

This is my example and it is working. You just need to put your properties on hibernate.properties and set it before:

    
        
            classpath:hibernate.properties
        
    

Obs.: the versions are
log4j: 1.2.16
springframework: 3.1.4.RELEASE
HikariCP: 1.4.0

Properties file (hibernate.properties):

hibernate.dataSourceClassName=oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource
hibernate.hikari.maximumPoolSize=10
hibernate.hikari.idleTimeout=30000
dataSource.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:xe
dataSource.username=admin
dataSource.password=
