Calling OpenConnection on a DaoManager in different threads causes an Exception
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: IBATISNET-102
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IBATISNET-102
     Project: iBatis for .NET
        Type: Bug
  Components: DataAccess  
    Versions: DataAccess 1.6.0, DataAccess 1.6.1    
 Environment: windows xp sp2, .Net 1.1 sp1
    Reporter: Louis Letourneau


Opening many (different)connections each in a seperate thread (as would occur 
in a web application) for one instance of a DaoManager causes connection 
already opened exceptions (or calling CloseConnection in the same circumstances 
causes connection already closed exceptions) . It's as if the new sessions 
don't get created individually for each thread...

I took the liberty of checking the source code of the DataAccess component, and 
the variable _localSqlMapSession in WindowSessionContainer.cs should be static. 
If it's not the ThreadStatic attribute will have no effect and every thread 
will have the same session (as in my case).
(The java ThreadLocal object can be used on a non-static field. The 
ThreadStatic attribute cannot. The compiler ignores the attribute on non-static 
fields).

Exception:
Got: IBatisNet.DataAccess.Exceptions.DataAccessException: DaoManager could not 
invoke OpenConnection(). A connection is already started. Call CloseConnection 
first.

I think that if you wish to have the same behaviour as the java dao 
implementation (having multiple DaoManager instances that each have different 
sessions per thread) adding the static modifier to the ThreadStatic field will 
not fix the issue in WindowSessionContainer.cs.

Instead of the static ThreadStatic field(which will be shared by every 
WindowSessionContainer in a given thread), maybe a hashtable instance that has 
the current daomanager name as key and the session as value would work.

ie(WindowSessionContainer.cs) Replace:
------------------------------------------------
[ThreadStatic] 
private 'static' IDalSession _localSqlMapSession = null; // currently missing 
the static modifier here

public IDalSession LocalSession
{
        get
        {
                return _localSqlMapSession;
        }
}

public void Store(IDalSession session)
{
        _localSqlMapSession = session;
}
------------------------------------------------
by
------------------------------------------------
[ThreadStatic] 
private static IDictionary _localSqlMapSessions; // can't initialize 
ThreadStatic variables.
private static Object _mutex = new Object();
private string _daoManagerName;

public WindowSessionContainer(string daoManagerName) {
        lock(_mutex) {
                if(_localSqlMapSessions == null)
                        _localSqlMapSessions = new Hashtable();
        }
        _daoManagerName = daoManagerName;
}

public IDalSession LocalSession
{
        get
        {
                return _localSqlMapSessions[_daoManagerName];
        }
}

public void Store(IDalSession session)
{
        _localSqlMapSessions[_daoManagerName] = session;
}
------------------------------------------------

This way, for a given thread, every WindowSessionContainer will share the 
_localSqlMapSessions, but since there is one WindowSessionContainer per 
DaoManager, the IDalSession will be unique by thread+DaoManager instance. And 
as a bonus, when the thread dies, the resources will be cleaned up.
