RE: [HACKERS] Request for 7.0 JDBC status

The jar file isn't built automatically in 7.0. You'll have to use:

make jdbc2 jar

The reason for this is partly on how make works, and partly because of
the kludge we have for handling the different API versions (like
JDBC1.1, JDBC2 etc)

"I don't do Java" can change fairly easily; just pick up the java
tarball from blackdown.org or sun.com, untar it into /usr/local, then
set your path via

set path=(/usr/local/jdk-xxx $path)

Go into src/interfaces/jdbc and type

make jdbc2

then grab the jar file(s).

otoh, how close are you Peter (hope you see this; I've blown away
enough email to have lost your address) to posting a built jar file or
whatever is usually provided? Should we post this somewhere on
postgresql.org to help out? Should I post my recently built stuff?

Great!
