You use JCA connection management in the Adapter Framework to call a resource adapter. Therefore, adapters must implement the connection management contract for the Adapter Framework.
The references refer to chapter 5 (Connection Management) of the document J2EE Connector Architecture Specification, Final Version 1.0.
