Answer 1

oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource.setConnectionCachingEnabled documentation state the following:

Deprecated. Use Oracle Universal Connection Pool instead.

You can download Oracle Database UCP and create your DataSource as follows:

import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
import oracle.ucp.jdbc.PoolDataSource;
import oracle.ucp.jdbc.PoolDataSourceFactory;

PoolDataSource poolDataSource = PoolDataSourceFactory.getPoolDataSource();
poolDataSource.setConnectionFactoryClassName(OracleDataSource.class.getName());
poolDataSource.setURL("jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE");
poolDataSource.setUser("SYSTEM");
poolDataSource.setPassword("****");
