package com.sun.jndi.ldap.pool;


Represents a callback used to release or remove a PooledConnection back
into the pool.
A pooled connection typically has a close method that its clients
use to indicate that they no longer need the connection. This close
method should use the methods defined in this interface to
interact with the connection pool to return the connection
to the pool.
The methods in this interface are typically invoked by a PooledConnection.
The methods in this interface are typically implemented by the connection
pool manager.
