ufs.xml oracle connection string

[EMvdB]

The connection string as in the sample of ufs.xml is like this:
Resource name="jdbc/UFSREPOSITORY" auth="Container"
type="javax.sql.DataSource"
username="***" password="***"
driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@***:1521:***"
maxWait="30000" max="10" maxIdle="5"
factory="com.ebase.jndi.DataSourceFactory"
validationQuery="select 1 from dual" checkLevel="1" preparedStatementCache="0"


But reading a how-to on Apache Tomcat they mentioned the following:
For Oracle 9i onwards you shuld use
oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
rather than
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver

What should I do (we are using Oracle 9)? Change the syntax? How to test if it is succesfull?

we use oracle 9i as a repository and the driver class name is set to oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver and it works fine.

We are using the same driver class name, but on this site http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc ... howto.html they mention the following:
For Oracle 9i onwards you should use oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver rather than oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver as Oracle have stated that oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver is deprecated and support for this driver class will be discontinued in the next major release.

That's why I would like to know what is better to do at the moment.
