Re: Postgres-jdbc example!

Hi
Why dont you try "javap org.postgresql.Driver" from
your command line with your classpath set  and see if
the driver is really available. If that gives a result
like this
***************************************************
Compiled from Driver.java
public class org.postgresql.Driver extends
java.lang.Object implements java.sql.Driver {
    static {};
    public org.postgresql.Driver() throws
java.sql.SQLException;
    public boolean acceptsURL(java.lang.String) throws
java.sql.SQLException;
    public java.sql.Connection
connect(java.lang.String, java.util.Properties) throws
java.sql.SQLException;
    public java.lang.String database();
    public int getMajorVersion();
    public int getMinorVersion();
    public java.sql.DriverPropertyInfo
getPropertyInfo(java.lang.String,
java.util.Properties)[] throws java.sql.SQLException;
    public static java.lang.String getVersion();
    public java.lang.String host();
    public boolean jdbcCompliant();
    public static java.sql.SQLException
notImplemented();
    java.util.Properties parseURL(java.lang.String,
java.util.Properties) throws java.sql.SQLException;
    public int port();
    public java.lang.String
property(java.lang.String);
}
***************************************************
you can access your driver.
Your code seems enough to test the fact that the
driver is available.
