Re: Fix DatabaseMetaDataTest in JDBC test suite

Your patch has been added to the PostgreSQL unapplied patches list at:

http://candle.pha.pa.us/cgi-bin/pgpatches

I will try to apply it within the next 48 hours.

> Attached is a patch that fixes DatabaseMetaDataTest in the JDBC

> 1) The driver correctly provided DatabaseMetaData about the sort

> 2) DatabaseMetaData.supportsOrderByUnrelated() correctly

> Fixed that.

> 3) Replaced deprecated assert() of junit.framework.TestCase by
> assertEquals(), assertTrue() and assertNotNull(). This is
> because assert will be a new keyword in Java 1.4.

> 4) Replaced assert(message,false) by the more elegant
