Simple implementation of the standard JDBC javax.sql.DataSource interface, configuring a plain old JDBC java.sql.Driver via bean properties, and returning a new java.sql.Connection from every getConnection call.

NOTE: This class is not an actual connection pool; it does not actually pool Connections. It just serves as simple replacement for a full-blown connection pool, implementing the same standard interface, but creating new Connections on every call.

In a Jakarta EE container, it is recommended to use a JNDI DataSource provided by the container. Such a DataSource can be exposed as a DataSource bean in a Spring ApplicationContext via org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean, for seamless switching to and from a local DataSource bean like this class.

This SimpleDriverDataSource class was originally designed alongside Apache Commons DBCP and C3P0, featuring bean-style BasicDataSource/ComboPooledDataSource classes with configuration properties for local resource setups. For a modern JDBC connection pool, consider HikariCP instead, exposing a corresponding HikariDataSource instance to the application.
