Hi all.
I have a Java application that it connects to the PostgreSQL database with IPv6 patch installed.
What exactly do you have for the URL in the first argument to getConnection? If you have a direct IPv6 address like jdbc:postgresql://::1 it will not work at the moment because it tries to parse the url using the colon as a delimiter which works fine for IPv4 addresses, but not IPv6 see org.postgresql.Driver#parseURL for more info.
What happens if you are using a name that resolves to an IPv6 address? You're probably the first person to actually try this. I will look into this further, but it may take me a while to get IPv6 up and running on my machine.
Did you get it working yet?
Kurt
The following patch allows you to connect using an IPv6 address by enclosing it in square brackets.
jdbc:postgresql://[::1]:5432/dbname
Additionally some minor cleanup to JDBC docs, adding <acronym> tags, mentioning JDBC 3 support, and cross referencing the installation instructions.
