20  * A "keyed" pooling interface.
21  * <p>
22  * A keyed pool pools instances of multiple types. Each
23  * type may be accessed using an arbitrary key.
24  * <p>
25  * Example of use:
26  * <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><tr><td><pre>
27  * Object obj = <font color="#0000CC">null</font>;
28  * Object key = <font color="#CC0000">"Key"</font>;
29  *
30  * <font color="#0000CC">try</font> {
31  * obj = pool.borrowObject(key);
32  * <font color="#00CC00">//...use the object...</font>
33  * } <font color="#0000CC">catch</font>(Exception e) {
34  * <font color="#00CC00">//...handle any exceptions...</font>
35  * } <font color="#0000CC">finally</font> {
36  * <font color="#00CC00">// make sure the object is returned to the pool</font>
37  * <font color="#0000CC">if</font>(<font color="#0000CC">null</font> != obj) {
38  * pool.returnObject(key,obj);
39  * }
40  * }</pre></td></tr></table>

43  * {@link KeyedObjectPool} implementations <i>may</i> choose to store at most
44  * one instance per key value, or may choose to maintain a pool of instances
45  * for each key (essentially creating a {@link java.util.Map Map} of
46  * {@link ObjectPool pools}).
