Re: WITH HOLD and pooled connections

Whew.  To the best of my knowledge, JDBC at least doesn't provide any 
API by which one could discover such a thing anyway, (although I guess a 
given driver could implement some sort of statement cache with a name 
lookup mechanism). I guess if it were part of the standards JDBC API 
we'd have heard calls for its support by now. When you think about it 
its a nice idea.

(You are right - all my prepped statements are used and disposed of 
within a single use of  a connection in a single thread.)

OK ... back to logging stuff ...
