Thread: JDBC 4 support
Since I'm using Java 6, I normally download the JDBC4 PG driver. Last night I upgraded to JBoss AS 6, and when I used the JDBC 4 driver it crashed with an exception stating something like Connection#createBlob wasn't implemented. Apparently the internal Hibernate tries to call this method.
The download page[1] still lists JDBC 4 support as "limited" saying that "the several of the new methods are stubbed out". This is a step up from last year when it said "the majority". But still, it's hard to believe that this is really still the case. How far off is complete JDBC 4 support?

I've just done a grep of the source and found there's quite a number of unimplemented methods (see attached), not just constrained to JDBC4. Perhaps it would be worth adding these to the todo list on http://jdbc.postgresql.org/todo.html? It might draw more developers by making it known there is lots to do, certainly I will look to lend a hand now that I know what's not done! -- Mike Fowler Registered Linux user: 379787
