Suppose an application uses connections to two resources, resource-A and resource-B. There are two connection pools, both with a maximum size of 2. There are 4 threads.
Imagine this scenario: Threads 1, 2, 3 and 4 begin transactions. Threads 1 and 2 request connections from the resource-A pool, and get them, thus exhausting the pool. Threads 3 and 4 request connections from the resource-B pool, and get them, thus exhausting the pool. Threads 1 and 2 request connections from the resource-B pool, and block because the pool is empty. Threads 3 and 4 request connections from the resource-A pool, and block because the pool is empty. Deadlock. Is this possible with JBoss? If not, how does JBoss deal with this problem?
