Well I have been professionally developing in Java since 1999, so I know what a classpath is. What I don't know is in which Jar theses classes are located. The org.postgresql.Connection is not in postgresql-8.2-508.*.jar, and org.postgresql.PGconnection class has its addDataType methods deprecated and not operating.
If you read carefully my first message, you'll notice that I managed to read geom data. But the example in the doco does not work for me, I had to do it differently so I wonder whether I did it right or not. The problem may be to related to the version of the JDBC driver I am using, which one is known to work with postgis jars? I downloaded them from http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html using the "8.2 Build 508" row.
