+
+ Apache Apache Commons DBCP
+ Version 2.1.1
+ RELEASE NOTES
+
+The Apache Commons DBCP team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Apache Commons DBCP 2.1.1.
+
+Apache Commons DBCP software implements Database Connection Pooling.
+
+This is a patch release, including bug fixes only.
+
+Changes in this version include:
+
+
+Fixed Bugs:
+o DBCP-441: Added BasicDataSource abandonedUsageTracking property missing from BasicDataSourceFactory.
+o DBCP-442: SharedPoolDataSource getConnection fails when testOnBorrow is set with
+ a null validation query.
+o DBCP-438: Nested connections in a transaction (local) throws null pointer. Thanks to Raihan Kibria.
+o DBCP-437: BasicDataSource does not set disconnectionSql properties on its PoolableConnectionFactory.
+
+Changes:
+o Updated pool version to 2.4.2. The fix for POOL-300 may cause DBCP
+ users to see more reports of abandoned connections (if removal and logging
+ are configured). Prior to the fix for POOL-300, the PrintWriter used to log
+ abandoned connection stack traces was not being flushed on each log event.
+
