Thread: Compiling 7.1 JDBC driver

Hi,

I just checked out 7.1 from CVS and am trying to compile the JDBC driver:

[javac] /home/jpl/pgsql/src/interfaces/jdbc/org/postgresql/Driver.java:199: ';' expected
[javac]     return ${major};
[javac]             ^


It looks like there are (CVS?) tags in the Java source code which should
be resolved to real version strings somehow. However, the README doesn't
mention this altogether. Can I replace those with correct substitutes
in some smart way instead of editing and "fixing" the driver's code manually?

Thanks -

yeah right, next time I configure it --with-java and it'll be fine ;-)

You should run './configure --with-java' and use 'make' and 'make
install'.  Running Ant directly doesn't work.  Yeah, the README needs to
be updated.
