Setting PG-version without recompiling

От

Hi.
 
I'm up for testing 9.4 but my JDBC-driver fails to connect due to PG's minor-version string: "4beta1".
Is it possible to set this somewhere without recompiling PG?
 
Thanks.

No, and even if you could, that would be the wrong approach.  The right
approach is to fix the JDBC driver to not complain about such version
strings.  I'm a bit surprised they haven't done so long since, considering
how long PG beta versions have been tagged like that.  For that matter,
they really ought not complain about strings like "9.5devel" or
"9.5alpha2" either.

            regards, tom lane

No, and even if you could, that would be the wrong approach.  The right

I'm using the pgjdbc-ng driver, I'm sure the "official" driver handles this.
The driver will be fixed (the issue has a pull-request), I just wondered if there was a magic know I could use until the PR is merged.

Yeah, that's  horrible. We should be using server_version_num .

It should be a quick enough fix, I'll take a look.
