Also 1.7 AutoCloseable interface (used in try-with-resources) is something I'd like to make a part of our own API. E.g. ResultIterator should be AutoCloseable. Also have some ideas for transaction management improvements that can take advantage of that. With 1.6 our next best option is using java.io.Closeable. Too bad it declares IOException in the "close" method, and relevant JDBC classes (e.g. Connection) do not implement it. So there is an opportunity cost associated with 1.6 support (as well as with dropping 1.6 support :)) Andrus
