Buğra Gedik updated POOL-315:
-----------------------------
Description:
The {{close}} method is implemented as follows:
{code}
public void close() {
if(!this.isClosed()) {
Object var1 = this.closeLock;
synchronized(this.closeLock) {
if(!this.isClosed()) {
this.startEvictor(-1L);
this.closed = true;
this.clear();
this.jmxUnregister();
this.idleObjects.interuptTakeWaiters();
}
}
}
}
{code}
The line {{this.startEvictor(-1L);}} calls
{{EvictionTimer.cancel(this.evictor);}} from {{BaseGenericObjectPool}} and that
in turn calls the following method in {{EvictionTimer}}:
{code}
static synchronized void cancel(TimerTask task) {
task.cancel();
--_usageCount;
if(_usageCount == 0) {
_timer.cancel();
_timer = null;
}
}
{code}
Here, {{_timer}} is a {{java.util.TimerTask}}. If you look at the documentation
of it, you'll see that it does not block on the currently executing task. Even
though {{task.cancel()}} is called, there is no code to wait for it to
complete. The end result is that, even if you close the pool, there may still
be an eviction thread running. Yes, it will eventually go away, but in some
rare cases it takes a bit of time to go away.
When running code under Tomcat, this results in the
{{"commons-pool-EvictionTimer"}} thread (created in the class
{{EvictionTimer}}) to be reported as leaking, despite the pool being closed.
This happens rarely, since most of the time the timer thread goes away before
Tomcat checks for leaking threads.
