Re: [HACKERS] Request for 7.0 JDBC status

?? From fresh sources afaik:

[postgres(at)golem jdbc]$ make jdbc2 jar
(echo "package org.postgresql;" ;\
echo "public class DriverClass {" ;\
echo "public static String
connectClass=\"org.postgresql.jdbc2.Connection\";" ;\
echo "}" \
) >org/postgresql/DriverClass.java

Seems a jar file does get built with "make jdbc2", but I'm not sure it
is the right one (being *much* more advanced than Lamar in the Java
world, I *make* Java, but don't actually *use* Java :)) ;)

As an aside, I thought Peter might find it interesting that we do have
a fairly large Java app at my work (JPL) to manage and build
configurations for a fancy hard real-time system for astronomical
optical interferometers. The app happens to use Postgres as a backend
for most deliveries ;) Keck Observatory will need it working with
Sybase since they long ago standardized on that...
