JDBC 4.1 introduces some automated resource management features through introduction of the try with resources language features.

commons-dbcp 1.4 is targeted at Java 1.6 (JDBC 4) so does not implement these features.

The resulting patchset to implement/no-op optional features is quite large.

[James Page (james-page)]

Endeavoring to find out from upstream if JDBC4.1 support is on the roadmap

[James Page (james-page)]

No response on mailing list so raised a bug instead - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DBCP-385

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package libcommons-dbcp-java - 1.4-1ubuntu2

---------------
libcommons-dbcp-java (1.4-1ubuntu2) quantal; urgency=low

  * Fix FTBFS with openjdk-7 (LP: #888125):
    - debian/patches/02_java7_compat.patch: Cherry picked patch from
      Fedora transition for compatibility with Java 7.
  * d/control: Use libgeronimo-jta-1.1-spec-java instead of deprecated
    libgeronimo-jta-1.0.1b-spec-java.
