That should happen eventually, IMHO, but I am not going to tell the JDBC developers that they must make it happen for 7.3. They've already got a pile of much-higher-priority things to fix for 7.3, like schema compatibility and dropped-column handling. My feeling about the original complaint is very simple: setting server autocommit to off is not supported with JDBC (nor is it fully supported with any other of our frontend clients, right at this instant, though that may improve somewhat before 7.3 release). If you don't like it, tough; contribute the required fixes or stop complaining. Someone else will fix it when they get around to it, but there are bigger problems to deal with first. Autocommit is only a work-in-progress today, not something that we promise will do anything useful for anybody. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
