Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to work with connection pools. The example I'm looking at is
lockated here:
http://www.developer.com/img/2009/11/Listing1_ConnectionPoolClass.html
You will notice that the getConnectionFromPool method does not implement
any blocking, and only returns null.
I would like my application to try and get a connection from the pool,
and if there are none free, wait until either one is free or time is up.
What is the best way to do this? Would creating a wrapper method work?
This wrapper method would check for null, and if so, execute a while
loop until a connection is returned. Also, would this wrapper method
need to be synchronised (remembering that multiple threads may be trying
to get a connection)?
Thanks
Jonny
