Phil Steitz commented on DBCP-345:
----------------------------------

I agree that if numActive shows 1 before anything has been borrowed from the 
pool, this is a bug.   Your code does not show this, however.  Moreover, the 
following test, using a stripped down version of your DebugConnectionPool 
(removing the stats and thread accounting) succeeds when added to 
TestGenerricObjectPool  (in src/test/org/apache/commons/pool/impl in the pool 
sources):

{code}
pool.setMaxActive(3);
 pool.setMinIdle(0);
 pool.addObject();  // effect of initialSize = 1 in DBCP
 assertEquals(0, pool.getNumActive());
 assertEquals(1, pool.getNumIdle());
 DebugConnectionPool debugPool = new DebugConnectionPool(pool);
 assertEquals(0, debugPool.getNumActive());
 assertEquals(1, debugPool.getNumIdle());
 debugPool.borrowObject();
 assertEquals(1, debugPool.getNumActive());
 assertEquals(0, debugPool.getNumIdle());
{code}

Adding instrumentation as you suggest before the borrow displays the correct 
value - 0 - for numActive.  There must be something else going on in your code. 
 What you need to trace is the client code that is access the pool - either 
directly, or indirectly using your wrapper class.

>             Project: Commons Dbcp
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.4
>            Reporter: Kevin Ross
>         Attachments: DebugBasicDataSource.java, DebugConnectionPool.java
>
>   Original Estimate: 1h
>  Remaining Estimate: 1h

> Scenario: we have some code that we had thought was potentially leaking 
> connections.  In our unitTest/integrationTest environment, we know we can 
> *lock down connections to a total of 2* and a full run should pass.  We had 
> no such luck with a {{maxActive}} of 2.    
> We created/attached a {{DebugBasicDataSource}} which initializes a  
> {{DebugConnectionPool}} for logging purposes and delegates into the DBCP 
> hierarchy.  BTW - consistent use of accessors would have made this a cleaner 
> affair ;) 
> {code}        // num active starts at one! Here is the original unmodified 
> log message:
>         //          BORROWING:  from abandonedobjectp...@10f0f6ac (1 of 2) 0 
> idle: threadStats[ ]: all-time uniques{ (empty)  }
>         // SEE! no borrows ever, and the first pre-borrow already has a count 
> of 1!{code}
> Before borrowing the first connection - {{numActive}} is 1!  
> The gorier details below, I hope they help someone else!
> Constraining the pool was the best way to uncover the leakage.  
> Thinking it was our error, we went after our code to find the problem.  We 
> had such a hard time understanding who was using connections, in which Spring 
> context.  The confusion stemmed from the fact that our unitTests run against 
> REST resources deployed as Jersey components in a Grizzly container.  Where 
> they using the same connection pool or not?  Was the unitTest setup side 
> exhausting more connections, or was it leaking on the REST service side.
> Answers: 
> 1.  Our unitTests executing Jersey with in-VM Grizzly container do indeed 
> utilize the same pool (and same Spring context).
> 2.  Our unitTest (side) was not using more than one connection for data 
> setup, and it returned the connection for reuse.
> 3.  Our REST service side was only using one connection, but was a Grizzly 
> threaded container and we have AcitveMQ running as well.  Practically, one 
> server connection could handle everything, but the REST service and ActiveMQ 
> listener could potentially claim 2.
> Note, the attached DebugBasicDataSource was quite useful to determine which 
> threads were claiming which connections in a leak situation.  Certainly do 
> not configure it on the production side, but it might be nice to see 
> something like this offered up on the DBCP site somewhere to help developers 
> find or confirm their misconfiguration or bad code.
