Laszlo,
I have the needed macros implemented for 7.4 in PL/Java. Look in src/C/pljava.h.Tom, is there other way in pg 7.4 than backporting PG_TRY? It seems a lot of work.
The exception handling in versions prior to 8.0 is very rudimentary though. There's (as you already discovered) no way to find the cause of an error. The error is reported to the caller and discarded before the longjmp occurs.
This *much* better in 8.0. Thank's Tom.
Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
