Re: [GENERAL] Use, Set Catalog and JDBC questions

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for the response. The situation is more like the following:

Using the JDBC driver, I connect to database TEST1 and immediately,
without having to pass username credentials again, I want to use database
TEST2. In MySQL, you can simply run: use TEST2. Wondering if
PostgreSQL has something similar.

Thanks,
Frank
