* JDBC Documentation??

Hello:
Christopher's letter has really piqued my curiousity. He referred to some kind
of class documentation for postgreql. classes. I just spent 20 minutes combing
the posqgresql.org web site, and was not able to find any such doc.
I've seen the Interfaces doc stuff on jdbc, and it is pretty thin. Certainly doesn't
refer to any but the usual suspects: Connection, Statement, ResultSet, etc...
Can anybody help me find this doc??
Thanks,
Mark Dzmura

Hm, I was referring to http://www.retep.org.uk/postgres/jdbc.pdf, which
is Chapter 21 of some other, abviously much larger document.
http://www.retep.org.uk/postgres is the original home of the JDBC driver
for postgresql, as far as I understand it.
Starting on page 168 of this document there's some really useful stuff
on Postgres Extensions to the JDBC API.
Cheers,
Christoph

Theres an entire section in the main documentation, which covers the non
standard features of the driver. It should be on the site somewhere. It's in
the main sourse tree for sure, and I have a pdf version on my web site (see the
signature)/

It's one of two original homes.

There was supposed to be some pdf's on the main site. Are they in existence, or
should I update the ones on my site to 6.5.1? I think the ones I have were from
the 6.4 version of the docs.

I found a dramatically reduced chapter 21 in the programmer.pdf on their
ftp site but Chapter 21 in the online documentation still contains the
api description. Is it so much different from the jdbc pdf on your site?

It may have been tidied up a lot. The original copy was simply placed
into the sgml docs.
I've got to sit down and take a look at the docs sometime.

There is a failing class name in the documentaion at:
PostgreSQL Programmer's Guide > 23. JDBC Interface
"Loading the Driver
Before you can connect to a database, you need to load the driver. There
are two methods available, and it depends on your code to the best one
to use.
In the first method, your code implicitly loads the driver using the
Class.forName() method. For Postgres, you would use:
Class.forName("postgresql.Driver"); " ....
the last row should be:
"Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver"); "
(just add the "org.")
if I'm not totaly messed up ;-)
Nice work!

Programmer's Guide: Chapter 23, sect "Loading the Driver" should read

The other code line on this page also needs to be changed to

This is the new (7.0+) way to reference the JDBC driver.
