I can definitely make use of this - or some other way to achieve this - I don't want to be required to specify the schema in each of my sql statements.

I heard someone say you can do it with the search path env. var. Can someone give an eg. of this in conjunction with a java code snippet?

Thanks

I don't think that's the answer hi's looking for. What he needs is setting the
default search_path to <schema> before he can operate on the db, and he
doesn't want to do it programmaticly(which I understand why). I think this is
perfectly valid and makes sence. I made a patch to the JDBC driver to allow
this some time ago, but it was rejected(lack of docs I think). Let me know if
it's of interest.
