This will make it easier to port bug fixes.
OK. I've already added the @Override markers but that shouldn't cause too much pain. I'll hold off the generics changes for now and focus on pool2 performance. >> I suspect we are going to need at least a snapshot build of pool/trunk >> to keep the Maven deps happy. > I wonder if it would be just as easy to just move to using Ant for > this phase of dbcp development and either build a pool jar or just > pull in the required pool sources? I would personally be fine with > that approach. My own plan (which is working already) is have the Tomcat DBCP/jdbc-pool performance tests as one Eclipse project which in turn depends on an Eclipse project for dbcp2 which in turn depends on an Eclipse project for pool2. I don't actually care right now that both the Ant and Maven builds for DBCP are broken. Others (and the CI systems) might ;) One option (that might also work for Gary) is to start producing snapshot builds of pool2.
