Christopher Schultz commented on DBCP-305:
------------------------------------------
I'm happy to provide a patch to AbandonedTrace, but it is marked as deprecated
in the javadoc and I want to make sure I'm doing the right thing. There's an
svn comment from markt stating that the "problem" has been fixed and so
AbandonedTrace need not be deprecated, so I guess that means AbandonedTrace is
still the way to do, eh?
> Use API-specific exception for logging abandoned objects
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DBCP-305
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DBCP-305
> Project: Commons Dbcp
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Christopher Schultz
> Priority: Trivial
>
> When a DBCP-managed object (Connection, Statement, etc.) is considered
> "abandoned", a stack trace is emitted to stdout. Unfortunately, the stack
> trace is for a simple java.lang.Exception (created in AbandonedTrace.init and
> AbandonedTrace.setStackTrace) with no message.
> When scanning log files for exceptions, say, like this:
> grep "Exception" my_logfile.log, I simply shows:
> java.lang.Exception
> java.lang.Exception
> java.lang.Exception
> ...
> It would be nice to use a more descriptive exception (for instance,
> AbandonedObjectException) and/or add a descriptive message to the exception
> upon creation.
> For example, it would be useful to execute the above command and see:
> org.apache.commons.dbcp.AbandonedObjectException: DBCP object created
> 2009-11-05 10:15:00 by the following code was never closed
> Having the timestamp and a definite identification of the exception (i.e. the
> class name) on the same line of log output is preferable IMO.
> Implementation should be trivial; I'd be happy to submit a patch. Also, the
> format of the logging information isn't part of the API itself, so it
> shouldn't be a big deal to change it.
