Ummm... It doesn't, but that's because you're mis-applying the
pattern. The idea is to have N Connections in the ConnectionPool, and
then call dbConn = pool.getConnection(); The pool object keeps an
internal counter, and keeps track of how many of its connections are in
use. The pool should generally be implemented as a singleton.
I'd recommend reading Grand's book "Patterns in Java", if you haven't
yet...
