Bug reference: 11205
Logged by: Chris Barham
Email address: cbarham@pobox.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.3.5
Operating system: N/A
Description:
spotted a possible issue in the Documentation around loading the JDBC
driver. This page documents how:
http://jdbc.postgresql.org/documentation/93/load.html
However, as of JDK6/JDBC 4.0, it should not be necessary to use the
Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver");
method to load the JDBC driver as they are automatically loaded â see
Javadoc here
