When an instance of GenericObjectPool is about to be garbage collected, does it release the objects/resources in its pool (e.g. by calling the PoolableObjectFactory.destroyObject(Object) method)? I plan to use GenericObjectPool to pool some objects, where each of these objects is holding on to a network connection. Ideally, the connections should always be closed cleanly.
Of course I can also implement finalize() on my own objects, or use a PhantomReference to the GenericObjectPool instance to ensure that this happens. But I just wanted to make sure first that GenericObjectPool is not already doing the work for me. I looked at the source code for GenericObjectPool and it did not seem to be doing this functionality. But since it's my first time looking at the code, can anyone confirm this?
