Just out of curiosity, What sort of situation do you have that objects get borrowed, but then forgotten? This is an interesting side-effect of pooling.
worse is better -----Original Message----- From: Dirk Verbeeck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 5:20 PM To: Jakarta Commons Developers List Subject: Re: DBCP - ReapingObjectPool Actually we already have something similar: AbandonedObjectPool. http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dbcp/xref/org/apache/commons/dbcp/Abandone dObjectPool.html Many enhancements are possible, I have been playing around the java.lang.ref package to see if it can provide a safe way to recover abandoned objects. Contributing is as simple as posting your improvements to the list. A whole new file or a patch for existing files. If there isn't a committer around then you can also make a bugzilla item for it. Writing comments to make the review easier helps and if you have junit tests then you can be sure your contribution won't go unnoticed. If you're thinking about doing a lot of work then first discuss it on the list just to make sure we are on the same line. Contributions are always welcome, bugfixes, enhancements, website updates, documentation, you name it...
