ContainerManagedConnection
Namespace: urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:resolver
Schema: http://shibboleth.net/schema/idp/shibboleth-attribute-resolver.xsd
Overview
The <ContainerManagedConnection>
 element specifies a connection via a JNDI DataSource resource provided by the container. This requires container-specific configuration steps, generally including adding the resource definition to the webapp context descriptor, and adding a reference to it in the deployment descriptor (web.xml).
In older versions, this was the only way to share a DataSource across multiple data connectors and to configure alternate pooling implementations. This is no longer the case; rather than rely on this mechanism, the new BeanManagedConnection element is the suggested alternative.
