Dave-
Yeah, sorry about that. I was having communication problems on
Friday. ;-)
Basically, the test case is calling getSQLType() in a valid
connection, and give it a valid oid, like 23 or 1043 or 701. (Least in
my database) (Or call it indirectly by using the DatabaseMetaData
class, and invoke getColumns()) Watching the database logfiles with
debug on,you can see the following many times:
Dec 10 12:11:23 osti logger: DEBUG: query: select typname from pg_type
where oid = 701
This query originates in the getSQLType(int) method off of the
Connection class. Its is called since the method checks the wrong
hashtable for the results to be cached. My fix I outlined below solves
this. In my server, the fix works fine. Of course, I expect other
people to check it out themselves.
A good testcase is simply calling getSQLType(int) using valid oid over
and over again, watching the database logs. It should only log once,
since the JDBC driver is susposed to cache it. I'll write a quick
little dity to test this and forward it to the group as well.
