    Description

      We had earlier a datasource, which had no maxOpenPreparedStatements property defined. Something like this:

      <bean id="basicDataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource" init-method="createDataSource" destroy-method="close">
      		<property name="poolPreparedStatements" value="true" />
      		<property name="url" value="${datasource.url}" />
      		<property name="driverClassName" value="${datasource.driverClassName}" />
      		<property name="username" value="${datasource.username}" />
      		<property name="password" value="${datasource.password}" />
      
      		<property name="initialSize" value="${datasource.initialSize}" />
      		<property name="maxActive" value="${datasource.maxActive}" />
      		<property name="maxIdle" value="${datasource.maxIdle}" />
      		<property name="minIdle" value="${datasource.minIdle}" />
      
      		<property name="timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis" value="${datasource.timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis}" />
      		<property name="minEvictableIdleTimeMillis" value="${datasource.minEvictableIdleTimeMillis}" />
      		<property name="maxWait" value="${datasource.maxWait}" />
      	</bean>
      

      Then we wanted to have a parameter to limit the prepared statement pool, so we added a new line for the maxOpenPreparedStatements (for compatibility reasons we added the line with a config file having '0' value which should mean unlimited according to the documentation at http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-dbcp/configuration.html):

      <bean id="basicDataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource" init-method="createDataSource" destroy-method="close">
      		<property name="poolPreparedStatements" value="true" />
      		<property name="maxOpenPreparedStatements" value="${datasource.maxOpenPreparedStatements}" />		
      		<property name="url" value="${datasource.url}" />
      		<property name="driverClassName" value="${datasource.driverClassName}" />
      		<property name="username" value="${datasource.username}" />
      		<property name="password" value="${datasource.password}" />
      
      		<property name="initialSize" value="${datasource.initialSize}" />
      		<property name="maxActive" value="${datasource.maxActive}" />
      		<property name="maxIdle" value="${datasource.maxIdle}" />
      		<property name="minIdle" value="${datasource.minIdle}" />
      
      		<property name="timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis" value="${datasource.timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis}" />
      		<property name="minEvictableIdleTimeMillis" value="${datasource.minEvictableIdleTimeMillis}" />
      		<property name="maxWait" value="${datasource.maxWait}" />
      	</bean>
      

      We ended up in having the following exception:

      So it turned out, that the documentation is wrong. Only negative numbers like -1 mean unlimited. 0 seems to mean limited to one item. Please correct the documentation to avoid problems of others.
