             Summary: Retrieval of primitive connection pool stat values
                 Key: HTTPCORE-311
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-311
             Project: HttpComponents HttpCore
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: HttpCore
    Affects Versions: 4.2.1
            Reporter: Seth Weiner
         Attachments: PollingPrimitivePoolControl.java, 
PollingPrimitivePoolControlTest.java, PrimitiveConnPoolControl.java

The org.apache.http.pool.ConnPoolControl interface exposes valuable runtime 
metrics for a connection pool's individual routes and global values. However, 
it uses a bean class, org.apache.http.pool.PoolStats, to exposes the global 
values. This is problematic when trying to monitor these connection pool values 
at runtime since PoolStats is not Serializable and many jmx monitoring agents 
only support primitive values well. The value of the PoolStats class seems to 
be in trying to minimize the amount of locking of the pool required to get 
stats.

The attached patch includes an interface that extends ConnPoolControl to add 
four methods to return the primitive value for global pool stats. There's an 
implementation of this interface that will delegate all of the ConnPoolControl 
methods to a delegate instance, and support retrieving the primitive global 
values by periodically retrieving and caching a PoolStats instance internally. 
This minimizes the amount of locking required while also making it easy to 
monitor these values.

It would probably be ideal to incorporate this functionality directly into the 
existing ConnPoolControl interface, but the attached code provides a 
non-invasive way to achieve the desired effect.
