Usage Examples for Production Features

Configuration-Driven Pool

var config = new PoolConfiguration
{
    MaxPoolSize = 100,
    MaxActiveObjects = 50,
    DefaultTimeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10),
    ValidateOnReturn = true,
    ValidationFunction = obj => obj != null && IsValid(obj)
};

var pool = new ObjectPool<MyClass>(initialObjects, config, logger);

Health Monitoring

// Check pool health
if (pool.IsHealthy)
{
    var item = pool.GetObject();
    // Use item
}

// Detailed health status
var healthStatus = pool.GetHealthStatus();
Console.WriteLine($"Pool Health: {healthStatus.IsHealthy}");
Console.WriteLine($"Utilization: {healthStatus.UtilizationPercentage:F1}%");

Metrics Export for Monitoring

// Export metrics for Prometheus/AppInsights
var metrics = pool.ExportMetrics();
foreach (var metric in metrics)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"{metric.Key}: {metric.Value}");
}

Logging Integration

services.AddLogging();
services.AddSingleton<ObjectPool<MyClass>>(provider =>
{
    var logger = provider.GetService<ILogger<ObjectPool<MyClass>>>();
    return new ObjectPool<MyClass>(initialObjects, config, logger);
});
