John fixed it already. It is include in 1.1RC2.

I second the motion for this change.  We are trying to evaluate and use
torque 3.1 and the latest dbcp and this is holding up our integration.

Thanks.

Subject: [DBCP] InstanceKeyDataSource



Hello DBCP-Developers,


can we please get a "public" in front of the

--- cut ---
abstract class InstanceKeyDataSource
       implements DataSource, Referenceable, Serializable {
--- cut ---

class definition.

Reason for this:

Torque (db.apache.org/torque) uses both commons-dbcp and also
commons-beanutils to set the properties of a data source. It does so by
calling PropertyUtils.setSimpleProperty() on a SharedPoolDataSource object
which in turn extends InstanceKeyDataSource.

Unfortunately, for resolving the accessibility of the property, BeanUtils
use MethodUtils from the BeanUtils package which notices that the class
which defines e.g. setValidationQuery() and
setTestOnBorrow() is not public and denies the property setting. So one
cannot set these properties from the Torque init. You get

ERROR - Property: testOnBorrow value: true is not supported by DataSource:
org.apache.commons.dbcp.datasources.SharedPoolDataSource
ERROR - Property: validationQuery value: SELECT 1 is not supported by
DataSource: org.apache.commons.dbcp.datasources.SharedPoolDataSource

which, of course, is wrong.

It's now argueable whether this is a bug in commons-beanutils (which should
see that the class itself (SharedPoolDataSource) which extends a non-public
class, making the properties visible, even if the declaring class
(InstanceKeyDataSource) is not public, however be it as it is, something
must change to make Torque work better with DBCP. And to me it's easier to
simply add a "public" to the class than redesigning the beanutils method
validator....

So, please, add a public modifier to InstanceKeyDataSource. Thanks.

        Regards
                Henning
