Hi,

While testing a Java app (that's been working for years with PostgreSQL
+ Linux) in a Windows box I get this error when inserting a record
whithin a transaction:

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: This statement has been closed.
~        at
org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.checkClosed(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:2390)
~        at
org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.executeWithFlags(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:329)
~        at
org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.executeUpdate(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:278)

What I was doing was to keep a single connection since the beginning
until the end of the session.

public class DbConnection
{
~  Statement statement = null;

~  public Statement getStatement() throws SQLException
~  {
~      if( statement == null )
~          statement = con.createStatement();
~      return statement;
~  }
}

As there was only one connection established with the database (fat
client), this seemed OK.

As the driver, when I ran the same app in Windos, was complaining that
the connection had been closed, I commented out the 'if' line above...
et voilá, problem solved.

New method:

~  public Statement getStatement() throws SQLException
~  {
    statement = con.createStatement();
~      return statement;
~  }

As I don't like this solution (either trusting the garbage collector to
do his job or closing every statement after have been used), what I ask
is: what is the proper way of handling this kind of problem?

Testing conditions:

Linux:
- - Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo, Fedora, etc.
- - PostgreSQL 7.4.x
- - pg74.216.jdbc3.jar

Windows:
- - Windows 2000, XP
- - PostgreSQL 8.1
- - postgresql-8.0-314.jdbc3.jar

Thanks,

Carlos
