1) adds NetBSD shared lib support on both ELF and a.out platforms
2) replaces "-L$(LIBPQDIR) -lpq" with "$(LIBPQ)" defined in
Makefile.global. This makes it much easier to build stuff in
the source tree after you've already installed the libraries.
3) adds TEMPLATEDIR in Makefile.global that indicates where the
database templates are stored. This separates the template files
from real libraries that are installed in $(LIBDIR).
4) changes include order of <readline/readline.h> and <readline.h>.
The latest GNU readline installs its headers under a readline
subdirectory.
In addition to applying the patch below the following files need to be copied:
backend/port/dynloader:
bsd.h -> netbsd.h
bsd.c -> netbsd.c
include/port:
bsd.h -> netbsd.h
makefiles:
Makefile.bsd -> Makefile.netbsd
It would be great to see this incorporated into the source tree before
the 7.0 release is cut.
Thanks!

the handling of negative numbers and commas. The attached path attempts
to fix these.
However the getValue method does not yet insert commas into the
generated string.
Also in getValue there is an incorrect assumption that the currency
symbol is '$', it should of course be '£'!. I have no idea on how to go
about fixing this one.

This implements some of the JDBC2 methods, fixes a bug introduced into the
JDBC1 portion of the driver, and introduces a new example, showing how to
use the CORBA ORB thats in Java2 with JDBC.
The Tar file contains the new files, the diff the changes to the others.
CHANGELOG is separate as I forgot to make a .orig ;-)
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:

When importing an image into the database, the example now fires off a
new
Thread, which imports the image in the background. This also means that
the application doesn't freeze on the user, and they can still browse
the
images in the database, while the upload is running.
This now makes the ImageViewer a true example on how to use Threads (the
threadtest class is just that - a test).

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>)
Attached you'll find a (big) patch that fixes make dep and make
depend in all Makefiles where I found it to be appropriate.
It also removes the dependency in Makefile.global for NAMEDATALEN
and OIDNAMELEN by making backend/catalog/genbki.sh and bin/initdb/initdb.sh
a little smarter.
This no longer requires initdb.sh that is turned into initdb with
a sed script when installing Postgres, hence initdb.sh should be
renamed to initdb (after the patch has been applied :-) )
This patch is against the 6.3 sources, as it took a while to
complete.
Please review and apply,
Cheers,

1) DatabaseMetaData.getPrimaryKeys() would fail saying that there
is no
table t.
2) PreparedStatement.getObject() was missing some break statements,
which
was causing updates not to work with JBuilder (supplied by Aaron
Dunlop).
jdbc fixes from Peter.
Ok, this fixes three things:
1. It seems (from tests submitted by two people with JBuilder) that
JBuilder expects a responce from ResultSetMetaData.getPrecision() &
getScale() when used on non numeric types. This patch makes these
methods return 0, instead of throwing an exception.
2. Fixes a small bug where getting the postgresql type name returns null.
3. Fixes a problem with ResultSet.getObject() where getting it's string
value returns null if you case the object as (PGobject), but returns
the value if you case it as it's self.
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!).
This patch fixes a few results in DatabaseMetaData, and updates the README
and TODO files (the later being a new file).
The TODO file lists the things that need to be looked into after 6.2 is
released, and describes the problem with Large Objects.
I've found a problem in the Postgresql jdbc driver.
"ReceiveInteger" shifts a received byte right instead of left.
This means that only the least significant byte is read into the int.
