/**
* A pooling interface.
*
* ObjectPool defines a trivially simple pooling interface. The only
* required methods are {@link #borrowObject borrowObject}, {@link #returnObject returnObject}
* and {@link #invalidateObject invalidateObject}.
*
*
* Example of use:
*
Object obj = null;
*
* try {
* obj = pool.borrowObject();
* try {
* //...use the object...
* } catch(Exception e) {
* // invalidate the object
* pool.invalidateObject(obj);
* // do not return the object to the pool twice
* obj = null;
* } finally {
* // make sure the object is returned to the pool
* if(null != obj) {
* pool.returnObject(obj);
* }
* }
* } catch(Exception e) {
* // failed to borrow an object
* }
*
*
* See {@link BaseObjectPool} for a simple base implementation.
