This isn't the proper forum, jdbc is external to the core project which is
what this list is for, but...
Until you tell the server you are done sending copy data it doesn't have to
parse it and cannot tell you how many records it found. So, no, you cannot
close the connection before calling endCopy and expect it to work.
I'm not familiar with this particular API but the code you show doesn't seem
standard to even the official jdbc project so that otherwise proper list
probably isn't the place to ask/report.
This is all that is standard:
http://jdbc.postgresql.org/documentation/publicapi/index.html
If you are using this code:
https://github.com/uwescience/myria/blob/master/src/edu/washington/escience/myria/PostgresBinaryTupleWriter.java
That library commits the sin of closing a buffer that it did not explicitly
create/open.
