Hi folks
I'd like to make the JDBC driver comple with JDK1.4. I've got the
following list of errors and potential remedies. Does anyone have any
objections if I start work on this?
The following are the methods defined in JDK1.4 which are not currently
implemented in the JDBC driver:
Title: RE: [JDBC] Ant installation (and other) issues!
Why is this such a big issue? Shipping the Ant binary would be like shipping the make binary, which seems silly to me. However, I would far prefer to use Ant to build the JDBC driver. So, is it not possible to simply maintain a

Hi
Attached is a unified diff to DatabaseMetadata from the jdbc2 interface.
It fixes a bug where the metadata does not include the scale/precision
of the database columns.
We have been using this patch successfully for about 2 years, it would
be great to finally get it into the sources.
I compiled postgres jdbc jar into jdbc.so using gcj and moved it into
usr/local/gcc/lib which is in my LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Then I created an application which uses jdbc and compiled it to native
code using gcj
now when I run the application, it's not able to find(load) the jdbc
driver.
Note that the

Tom,
My reasons for not wanting to depend on Ant are:
Many binary distributions of Postgres are not including the JDBC code
because of the added overhead of the jdbc build process (i.e. getting
Ant installed).
Users have complained to the mail lists in the past about the
requirement for Ant
