Thread: Problem building jdbc jars

Hi pgsql-jdbc list.

This is my first post - so please forgive the newbie questions!

I get 100+ errors building.
Many of the messages are complaining that they cannot find
javax.transaction.xa.Xid.
For example, there's an import statement for this structure in the file
XADataSourceImpl.java.

My platform:

Linux 2.4.3-12
Ant 1.3
Sun Java J2SE JDK 1.3.1 (release)
jdbc2_0-stdext.jar is installed in my $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext directory.

I don't understand the problem. I strange thing though, Sun docs suggest
that this interface is only part of 1.4 and not 1.3...

Any help would be appreciated!!!

This is part of the Java Transaction API in J2EE:
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/transactions.html. Download and install
J2EE 1.2.1 from http://java.sun.com/j2ee/download.html#sdk and
that will probably fix it.

There is a line in the Ant build file
src/interfaces/jdbc/build.xml that's probably supposed to catch
this situation:

  <exclude name="${package}/xa/**" unless="jdk1.2e+" />

I'm not sure why it doesn't in your case.

Next time you post such a problem, please quote the (first)
error message you get from the compiler, including the line
number.
