i am trying to use c3p0 in my current Spring based application. I am no database pooling expert and was wondering if there is a more or less a good example of a c3p0 configuration (in applicationContext.xml) that can be used against a MySQL database? The pool should detect database connection loss and retries.

You mean c3p0 or hibernate-c3p0? Hibernate has taken development for C3P0 and it is very well alive. It just published version 4.0.0 CR1, which will be out with Hibernate 4.

c3o0 is dead, do not use it. Use jdbc-pool
Here's the docs, (scroll down to How to use) http://people.apache.org/~fhanik/jdbc-pool/jdbc-pool.html
Here's a good article on why is this better http://www.tomcatexpert.com/blog/2010/03/12/explaining-jdbc-pool-high-concurrency-alternative-connection-pooling-module
