Thomas-

I believe that the reason for this is because the XA support is incomplete.
The most benefit one gets from the current J2EE classes from postgresql is
Datasource/JNDI support, but its not a complete jdbc2-compliant set. Because
of this, it may be confusing to the avg user, so they are not provided on
the website.

If you are planning to use the driver in a J2EE app, you likely need the
DataSource/JNDI classes and Pooling. If you need pooling behavior, you'll
need to have a seperate package that can provide it since the driver does not
currently have that available. I recomend using PoolMan (www.codestudio.com)
which can wrap the postgresql driver nicely.
