Today i’ve been upgrading our project to use all the libraries provided by jdeveloper. I’ve had some problems:

• We’re using jgoodies in combination with jclient. I received an error about a property not existing (don’t remember the exact error). After upgrading to jgoodies looks 1.3 snapshot the error disappeared.
• I got null pointer exceptions in some junit tests which use oracle’s pooled connection. This can be avoided by provinding a username and password to the datasource, even if you specify the username and password in your database url. So, instead of

  ds = new OracleConnectionPoolDataSource();
  ds.setURL(dbUrl);
  conn = ds.getPooledConnection();
  

  Specify:

  ds = new OracleConnectionPoolDataSource();
  ds.setURL(dbUrl);
  ds.setPassword(password);
  ds.setUser(username);
  conn = ds.getPooledConnection();
