| Class | public class Pool |
| Inheritance | Pool  Object |
If you want to retrieve an object, but the pool does not contain any more instances, it will silently create a new one.
It's important that you use the pool in a balanced way, i.e. don't just "get" or "put" alone! Always make the calls in pairs; whenever you get an object, be sure to put it back later, and the other way round. Otherwise, the pool will empty or (even worse) grow in size uncontrolled.
