            Bug ID: 62652
           Summary: DBCP documentation to fix/clarify
           Product: Tomcat 8
           Version: 8.0.x-trunk
          Hardware: PC
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
          Reporter: lbarbar...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ----

First of all, for none experts, trying to figure out how to set consistently a
DB connection into a context file, has become difficult.

We have DBCP 1, DBCP 2... Tomcat implements its own implementation and there's
no spot clearly specifying what to choose or set...  
Resource factory attribute is not enough mentioned but it's a corner stone.
According to where you look into Tomcat 8+ documentation, at first sight it
seems to be contradictory, because of the fact that old pool implementation
still coexists with the new one, but if it's not clear for you, you don't know
what to believe...

Well, a table clearly identifying all the modifications about this concern
between Tomcat versions, would have been very useful.

But, before that, there's at least one mistake to fix, here
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html#JDBC_Data_Sources
(and onward versions)
because, according to DBCP documentation and Tomcat upgrade guides,
removeAbandoned attribute has become removeAbandonedOnBorrow /
removeAbandonedOnMAintenance. 

Thank you
