Hi all,
I see from the archives and various forums on the web that I am not the
only one who would desperately like pljava support for PG8.4. I see
there is a fix in CVS so is there any chance the developers can make a
new release? I would be *extremely* grateful!
I put in a request to Debian/Ubuntu to get a package in the repositories
but the maintainer is not responding. The existing pljava in Ubuntu is
unusable as it works against an earlier version of PG which is no longer
supported.
I am perfectly happy to compile for myself on my own system, but I want
to release a server application that relies on pljava. I can't expect
my users to manually compile dependencies!
Many thanks
Peter

Hi Peter,
A lot could be done to improve pljava in various ways. Support for
generics, PostgreSQL 8.4, more secure trust etc. What's lacking is
resources. So far, very few has come forward and offered any real help
in terms of resources or funding. So to all of you PL/Java users that
want 8.4 support or other improvements, any chance you can help out and
make it happen?
Kind Regards,
Thomas Hallgren

Hi Thomas,
My small group has contributed practically in the past, but unfortunately I no longer have anyone on my team that can help out in this way. Resources are often a problem with smaller open source projects. What sort of funding do you think is required to get PG8.4 support? Are you (or any other developer of this list) in a position to implement this for a bounty?
Regards
Peter

I've built packages for postgres 8.4 using the latest pljava CVS. These
were built on ubuntu lucid, so they match the current postgres version
there (8.4.4). I have no easy way to test them on an earlier distro.
These just install the .jar and the .so, so proper configuration of the
postgresql server is still necessary.
http://mcsnw.com/pljava/postgresql-8.4-pljava_1.4.0.20100925-1_amd64.deb
http://mcsnw.com/pljava/postgresql-8.4-pljava_1.4.0.20100925-1_i386.deb
(sources and such at http://mcsnw.com/pljava/)
If you're still offering a bounty... ;)
Enjoy,
Lucas

Hi Lucas,
Awesome! I didn't realise you were still using pljava.
Do the normal main stream deb packages do other configuration of
postgres? Can we propose these packages get pushed into the Ubuntu
repositories?
Cheers
Pete
P.S. Bounty will be in the post shortly! ;-)

I think something getting in the way of a new package is that there's
no official release from the pl/java team. Could the current version be
released as pljava-1.4.1? It looks like nothing has changed in CVS in
over a year.

Time to raise the subject of PG9 support too?

Hi Peter,
Personally, I have very little time to devote to this project but if
someone else steps up, I promise to do what I can to get needed patches
etc. into the source tree.
Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
