BasicDataSource is thread-safe, but allows sub-classes to violate that
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DBCP-285
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DBCP-285
Project: Commons Dbcp
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Sebb
BasicDataSource is thread-safe, because all variables are read/written via
synchronised methods.
However, since almost all the variables are protected, sub-classes can ignore
the synchronisation and compromise thread safety.
Not sure I see the point of allowing a sub-class to do this; the variables
ought to be private.
If this cannot be done, then I suggest updating the Javadoc to warn classes not
to use the instance variables directly.
