-----------------------------------

Hi Filippo,

No sure is your problem the same as the one i found. Because your thread dump 
looks different. Do you know which version of commons pool you have? 
GenericObjectPool.java:942 is javadoc in 1.5.2

If you sure about they are the same, you can try Phil's solution. Even though 
there maybe more bugs like this, but this fix should help your problem.

> This bug will happen when the pool is in exhausted state and the borrowed 
> object are invalid.
> Let's go through a simple scenario:
> 1)A GenericObjectPool with _maxActive==1, 
> whenExhaustedAction==WHEN_EXHAUSTED_BLOCK
> 2)Two threads using that pool, called thread1 and thread2
> Here is error path:
> 1)thread1 calls pool.borrowObject() to get the object out of the pool
> //now the pool is exhausted
> 2)thread2 calls pool.borrowObject(), adds a new latch to the 
> _allocationQueue, but before it enters the synchronized block for 
> WHEN_EXHAUSTED_BLOCK(GenericObjectPool line 1099 revision 806215), 
> context-switch happens
> 3)thread1 checks the object from pool, and decides to invalidate it. So it 
> calls pool.invalidateObject(), which calls allocate(), then calls 
> latch.notify(), but currently no thread is waiting on this latch.(thread2 has 
> not enter the wait synchronized block yet).
> 4)Then thread2 will wait there for ever.(it just missed the notify)
