I can only assume your right. Hmm. The only solution that I can see is 
to check for that in the info object specifically. I would prefer for 
Proxool not to do that since it only takes JRUN to change that for it to 
break again.

Another option is for you to not configure Proxool with XML but instead 
pass in the info object each time. Obviously, you'd want to create your 
own wrapper for that. That way, ProxoolDriver would always receive an 
identical info object and the pool wouldn't be redefined.

It may seem like a simple fix to detect "embedded=true" and ignore it, 
but that means we are breaking a contract: someone passes a property to 
the driver and it is ignored. I've no idea why JRUN decides to send this 
property but it would be wrong for Proxool to make adjustments for it.

If you wanted to, you could write your own JRUN JDBC driver that just 
took a URL like "jrun.foo", stripped out the "embedded=true" property 
and passed it on to the DriverManager as just "foo". That means you 
could configure Proxool how you liked.

If none of these options seem appealing then get back to me, and we'll 
see what we can do.

BTW, you would have received an answer on the proxool-user list too 
eventually. Most developers listen to both lists I think.
