Hi,

There seems to be a problem with DatabaseMetaData.getTables() when I do the following:

ResultSet R=conn.getMetaData().getTables(null, null, "%", null);

It throws a NullPointerException:

java.lang.NullPointerException
        at org.postgresql.jdbc2.DatabaseMetaData.getTables(DatabaseMetaData.java:1732)
        at Test.main(Test.java:66)

Looking at the source, ResultSet.getBytes() is called and it returns null, causing 
this exception to be thrown. However I can use ResultSet.getString() without a 
problem. I'm using 7.1.3 at the moment. Does ResultSet.getBytes() need to be fixed or 
should getTables() be modified?

I'd be grateful for any insights. Or you can just tell me to use the latest cvs 
version of PostgreSQL :) What is the consensus on supporting older versions, will you 
phase out old code when 7.2 comes out?
