Right.

In 1.0.1 it was not deprecated.

dataSource = new FBWrappingDataSource();
dataSource.setDatabase( file );
dataSource.setUser( user );
dataSource.setPassword( password );
dataSource.setIdleTimeout( idleTimeout * 60 * 1000 );
dataSource.setPooling( pooling );
dataSource.setMinConnections( minSize );
dataSource.setMaxConnections( maxSize );
dataSource.setLoginTimeout( loginTimeout );

dataSource.setNonStandardProperty("sql_dialect", "3");

See
http://jaybirdwiki.firebirdsql.org/config/FBWrappingDataSourceParameters
for more information.

In final version properties maxConnections, minConnections and
idleTimeout will be deprecated, instead maxPoolSize, minPoolSize and
maxIdleTime should be used (that's names recommended by the JDBC 3.0
specification).
