Adding a Callback to Trigger on Reusing a Connection

[Malaka Gallage]

Hello everyone,

I'm using NIO version 4.2.5 and I'm facing a little problem. I have some
operations to be executed on HttpAsyncRequestExecutor#connected and I have
implemented those operations now. But the problem occurs when I use
keepalive connections. I want these operations to be executed on reusing an
established connection from the pool too.

To achieve this, I have added a callback method called onReusingPoolEntry()
to AbstractNIOConnPool which is executed when reusing an established
connection from the pool.

Code :

private boolean processPendingRequest(final LeaseRequest<T, C, E> request) {
..................
........
    if (entry != null) {
        this.available.remove(entry);
        this.leased.add(entry);
        future.completed(entry);
        onReusingPoolEntry(entry);
        return true;
    }
.........
.................
}

protected void onReusingPoolEntry(E entry) {}


I suggest to add this feature to the NIO code base too. WDYT?

Thanks
Malaka
