Currently you can get notifications without polling the database if you are not using a SSL connection. You still must poll the driver, using PGConnection.getNotifications, but it will return new notifications received without an intermediate database query. This doesn't work over SSL and potentially some other connection types because it uses InputStream.available that not all implementations support. Kris Jurka

without polling the database if you are not using a SSL connection. You
still must poll the driver, using PGConnection.getNotifications, but it
will return new notifications received without an intermediate database
query. This doesn't work over SSL and potentially some other connection
types because it uses InputStream.available that not all

I know it works without SSL, but we need SSL for this.
If it would be possible to fix it, my company is as I said willing to pay for the cost of such a patch.

I certainly don't want to discourage you from cleaning up the jdbc ssl situation, but one workaround might be to use stunnel. merlin
