Added org/postgresql/DriverClass.java to the list of files removed by make clean (it's dynamically built)
Fixed Statement, so that the update count is valid when an SQL DELETE operation is done.
While fixing the update count, made it easier to get the OID of the last insert as well. Example is in example/basic.java

to version 2, and fixes ResultSetMetaData.getColumnDisplaySize().

commit to CVS.

file containing the latest version of the JDBC driver, allowing it to be
compiled and used under JDK 1.2 and later.

NB: None (well almost none) of the new methods actually do anything. This
release only handles getting it to compile and run. Now this is done, I'll
start working on implementing the new stuff.

Now this tar file replaces everything under src/interfaces/jdbc. I had to
do it this way, rather than diffs, because most of the classes under the
postgresql subdirectory have moved to a new directory under that one, to
enable the support of the two JDBC standards.

Here's a list of files in the tar file. Any file not listed here (in the
postgresql directory) will have to be deleted, otherwise it could cause
the driver to fail:

important step towards making the driver compliant, and means that for
some Java applications and servlets, only a single database connection
is
needed, so in a sence this is a nice little show stopper for 6.4 (and
should still be backward compatible to 6.3.2).

Bug fixes:

        PreparedStatement.setObject didn't handle short's

        ResultSet.getDate() now handles null dates (returns null rather
        than a NullPointerException)

        ResultSetMetaData.getPrecision() now returns 0 for VARCHAR

New features:

        Field now caches the typename->oid in a Hashtable to speed things
        up. It removes the need for some unnecessary queries to the
        backend.

        PreparedStatement.toString() now returns the sql statement that
        it will send to the backend. Before it did nothing.

        DatabaseMetaData.getTypeInfo() now does something.

This fixes a problem in ResultSet.getDate() when the column is NULL
(reported by Vincent Partington <Vincent.Partington@nmg.nl>)

And fixes a problem with Field's (ResultSet.getObject() was proving to be
slow as it repetedly send queries for oid -> name mapping - fixed by
creating a cache. (reported by Mario Ellebrecht <ellebrec@nads.de>)

From: AA van Raalte <alvin@camberlo.demon.co.uk>

This patch fixes the following:

* Fixes minor bug found in DatabaseMetaData.getTables() where it doesn't
  handle default table types.
* It now reports an error if the client opens a database using
  properties, and either the user or password properties are missing. This
  should make the recent problem with Servlets easier to find.
* Commented out obsolete property in Driver.getPropertyInfo()

[This is a repost - it supercedes the previous one. It fixes the patch so
it doesn't bread aix port, plus there's a file missing out of the
original post because difforig doesn't pick up new files. It's now
attached. peter]

This patch brings the JDBC driver up to the current protocol spec.
Basically, the backend now tells the driver what authentication scheme to
use.

The patch also fixes a performance problem with large objects. In the
buffer manager, each fastpath call was sending multiple Notifications to
the backend (sometimes more data in the form of notifications were being
sent than blob data!).
