Thread: Java 6 support for org.postgresql.ds.PGPoolingDataSource
Hello all,
I am attempting to upgrade from Java 5 to Java 6. When I tried this I found that the org.postgresql.ds.PGPoolingDataSource class is broken because it implements javax.sql.DataSource which in Java 6 now extends (which it does not in Java 5) the java.sql.ComonDataSource and java.sql.Wrapper interfaces (which I find totally ridiculous that Java would break backward compatibility like this). Anyway, my question is: Is there a postgresql jdbc driver that supports Java 6 or do we just have to implement the new interfaces ourselves in the jdbc code and then recompile? I searched the site and could not find anything about Java 6 support.
Thanks,
-Don
