Does this connection provider support aggressive release of JDBC
connections and re-acquisition of those connections (if need be) later?
This is used in conjunction with AvailableSettings.RELEASE_CONNECTIONS
to aggressively release JDBC connections. However, the configured ConnectionProvider must support re-acquisition of the same underlying connection for that semantic to work.
Typically, this is only true in managed environments where a container
tracks connections by transaction or thread.
Note that JTA semantic depends on the fact that the underlying connection provider does
support aggressive release.
Returns: true
if aggressive releasing is supported; false
otherwise.
