Re: postgres CVS Against j2sdk1.4 Failure

J2SDK 1.4 uses the JDBC 3.0 specification, which among other things adds some methods to ResultSet which haven't been implemented in the code... have you got a 1.3 JVM about that you can compile it with? Once compiled, you can still use it under J2SDK 1.4 (of course none of the unimplemented methods will be available).

I'm not sure what the state of play is with implementing the JDBC 3.0 spec though (I think there's a few quick wins we might be able to do, like the method that retrieves the sequence number). What are the developer's thoughts on this, will it follow a similar path and create an org.postgresql.jdbc3 package?

Cheers,
Joe
