------- Additional Comments From yoavs@computer.org  2004-12-07 21:26 -------
The JDBC Spec says indeed that those resources will be automatically closed 
when garbag collected.  It doesn't say when they can be garbage collected, nor 
does it place restrictions on implementations to garbage collect after 
executing SQL.  So DBCP is not in violation of the Spec by a long shot.

Accordingly, I'm changing this into an enhancement request.  If you want to 
increase the probability of it being done any time soon, submit a patch.

Two other notes: First, AbandonedTrace is deprecated and has been for a while.  
It will likely be removed in the next major DBCP released, at which point this 
item will become moot.  Second, the best practice for JDBC resource handling is 
to explicitly close what you don't need.  People who write code as you 
illustrate above are not following that practice and don't deserve much 
sympathy.
