Hi List.
I've just tried to compile pljava with Sun's Java SE 6.
Not a pretty sight.
Seems there are a number of extra methods in JDBC Connection,Statement
APIs which need coding.
Has anyone already made any progress with this yet?
I am wondering if it is even possible to support Java 6 and remain
backwards compatible, as the latest API has functions which use generics.
<T> T unwrap(Class<T> iface)
No idea if it's possible to support this for older Java versions.
Cheers
Peter Henderson.

Not without giving up support for 1.4. What's the status of GCJ and 1.5 today? Anyone knows?
Alternatively, we could branch off a specific branch for old stuff.
Kind Regards,
Thomas Hallgren

I think with the announcement that Java 7 (aka OpenJDK aka 1.7) being
available under the GPL, GCJ usage will probably decline (but I don't
have a crystal ball!)

Maybe this is the best route, in the future have a release for each
major version of Java.
Or maybe for each revision of JDBC, I think Java 6 includes JDBC 4.

Hello Thomas,
you have promised to build pljava binaries for postgresql 8.2, any
chance to do it in near future ? What about support for java 6 ? I'm not
able to upgrade my postgresql server until pljava will be ready for 8.2.
Thanks in advance for an answer.
Regards,
ML
