Thread: JDBC Type 4 Driver Jar File.

According to Sun, http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=221, it is not yet
available:
"2.11 Please describe the anticipated schedule for the development of
this specification.

This specification will be available towards the end of the calendar
year, 2004. "

So I wonder why you expect a Postgresql JDBC4 driver to be available,
while the specs, J2EE1.5 and such aren't finished yet.

There is, of course, a JDBC3-compatible driver available which you can
use for your system at http://jdbc.postgresql.org/ .

Regards,

Arjen

He wasn't referring to JDBC 4 but to a *Type* 4 driver.

The current jdbc driver for Postgres *is* a Type 4 driver (i.e. it is 100%
java and does not require and additional client software)
