In response to LISTEN/NOTIFY support in JDBC driver?  (Benjamin.Feinstein@guardent.com)
List pgsql-jdbc
Hey ya'll,

Thanks for the quick reply, Barry!  I'm still having trouble getting the
notifications from the "SQLWarning Connection.getWarnings()" method.  When I
tried to execute multiple LISTEN statments, I get warnings like:

java.sql.SQLWarning: NOTICE:  Async_Listen: We are already listening on
event

However, I've never gotten a notification from the warnings. Yes, I am
sending the notifies from another connection to the same database. I've
attached my Java test program. Could you take a look and see what I'm doing
wrong?

Cheers,
Ben

The jdbc driver does support notifications, but in a rather strange way.
  When the driver receives a notification is takes the notification
message and adds it to the list of warnings on the connection.  So the
way you get notifications is to call getWarnings().  Given that there
isn't a concept like notifications in the jdbc API, this is perhaps the
best way these can be handled within jdbc, unless someone can suggest a
better approach.

thanks,
