This example presents the basic concept of configuring Datasource in Spring JDBC.

The technologies used are :

– Spring 4.3.18
– H2 1.3
– Lombok 1.18
– JDK 1.80
– Maven 3.3.9

You can convert this example to an Eclipse IDE project by going to folder where is the pom.xml is, and use the command :

mvn eclipse:eclipse
