Subject: Re: [BUGS] Bug #926: if old postgresql.jar in CLASSPATH,

The following will do what you're asking:

<available classname="org.postgresql.Driver" property="old.driver.present" />
<fail message="Old driver on classpath" if="old.driver.present" />

I think you are correct, this will not fix 2, is it possible to detect
if a class is present in ant, and fail?

Can someone explain to me why this change fixes the problem?

I don't understand why including 'includeAntRuntime="no"' in the javac tag will cause the compile to no longer pick up old versions of the driver that may be around. There are two cases that I am familiar with of this problem: 1) there is a old postgresql jdbc jar file in the CLASSPATH environment, and 2) there is an old jar in the jre/lib/ext directory. I can see where this patch might prevent 1 (although the property name and doc aren't very clear on that) but I don't see how it would fix 2.

thanks,

It's been in use for the freebsd port for some months now, so I say yes. ;-)

Is this patch valid for inclusion in jdbc?

The lower the number the more severe it is.

Short Description
if old postgresql.jar in CLASSPATH, ant fails

Long Description
See http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=48878

If there is an older postgresql.jar file in the ant classpath when building a new postgresql.jar, it will fail.

Sample Code
Adding includeAntRuntime="no" to the compile target in build.xml, as suggested by Tetsurou Okazaki <okazaki@xxxxxxxxxxx>, fixes the >> problem
