StackObjectPool, SoftReferenceObjectPool borrowObject can loop indefinitely
when new instances fail validation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: POOL-117
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/POOL-117
Project: Commons Pool
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.3
Reporter: Phil Steitz
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.4
The borrowObject methods in StackObjectPool, SoftReferenceObjectPool are
synchronized and do not bound the number of attempts to create a valid instance
when the pool is exhausted. When a new instance is created, if activation or
validation fails, the code continues (without bound) to retry the
make-activate-validate sequence. This can lead to an infinite loop if the
factory is unable to create valid instances.
