Thread: Cannot build JDBC driver for PostgreSQL 7.12 on NT
Hello,
When building Postgres 7.1.2, I compile the JDBC drivers. During
the compilation, I'm getting lots of errors. Can anyone tell me how I
can fix this? Please see the results of my compilation below.
Thanks.

Sorry, but I have no idea why you are having build problems but the
following in Driver.java is very suspicious:
[javac] C:\postgresql-7.1.2\src\interfaces\jdbc\org\postgresql\Driver.java:
99: ';' expected
[javac] return ${major};
[javac] ^
[javac] C:\postgresql-7.1.2\src\interfaces\jdbc\org\postgresql\Driver.java:
09: ';' expected
[javac] return ${minor};
When I grep through my Driver.java, I cannot find any occurrences
of ${major} or ${minor}. I believe that they should be 7 and 1,
respectively. Somehow your configure/make went awry.
Nevertheless, why don't you just use the Cygwin PostgreSQL 7.1.2
distribution that contains a pre-built postgresql.jar? You find
postgresql-7.1.2-1.tar.gz on a Cygwin mirror:

I did a "./configure --with-java" followed by a "make" and that's what
happened. I'll try one more time. If it doesn't work, I'll look for the
JAR file you mentioned.
Thanks.

I had the same problem when tested the the .jar creation under cygwin.
It seems that the source tree comes with a Driver.java included, which has those statements (magically inserted :). A
"makeclean" followed by a "make" in src/interfaces/jdbc, solves this error, because in org/postgresql exists a
Driver.java.in,which generates the real Driver.java an actual build needs.
The presence of the original Driver.java prevents this generation, leading to the above problem.

SLao

To which source are you referring? I just checked both the source from a PostgreSQL mirror and the one that I uploaded to the Cygwin mirrors. Neither contain a Driver.java. Are you sure that Driver.java is not left over from a previous make? Jason -- Jason Tishler Director, Software Engineering Phone: 732.264.8770 x235 Dot Hill Systems Corp.

Ok, I must admit, I didn't check the source before neither before ./configure --with-java nor after the first make :)
Itcan be that one of these commande create the above Driver.java. I checked this in 7.1 and in 7.1.2 versions (with
sourcesfrom ftp.postgresql.org)
Thanks,

Thanks. The installation is built and running.
Thanks again.

But if the build process generates it, how come I wind up with errors during an initial build, causing me to build a second time with the suggested procedure?
