Phil Steitz commented on DBCP-423:
----------------------------------
It seems a little smelly to me to implement Closeable from java.io here. I
would be OK adding a close method to PoolingDataSource that properly handles
edge cases, etc, like the close in BasicDataSource does. Would that be
sufficient? Any other thoughts on this?
> PoolingDataSource should implement Closeable
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DBCP-423
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DBCP-423
> Project: Commons Dbcp
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Christian Schneider
> Fix For: 2.1
>
>
> Currently PoolingDataSource only implements DataSource.
> I have the following case in ops4j pax-jdbc. I offer a DataSourceFactory in
> one bundle that can create a pooling DataSource.
> Then in another bundle I create DataSources based on config in
> ConfigurationAdmin. So when the config appears I create the DataSource, when
> the config goes away I have to destroy it.
> It is important to correctly dispose the DataSource as the pool has to be
> closed. As I can not depend on dbcp in the bundle that destroys the
> DataSource I currently have no simple way to destroy the DataSource.
> This is where I create the DataSource:
> https://github.com/ops4j/org.ops4j.pax.jdbc/blob/master/pax-jdbc-pool/src/main/java/org/ops4j/pax/jdbc/pool/impl/PooledDataSourceFactory.java
> I was able to solve it by a kind of hack. I extended the PoolingDataSource
> with a class that supports Closeable. So from the other bundle I could check
> if the object implements Closeable and call close.
> It would be a lot easier if PoolingDataSource would implement Closeable like
> I did. The same is true for GenericObjectPool and the other pools. If they
> would implement Closeable then handling them would be a lot easier.
> They already support a close method so it would be a small change.
