DatabaseMetaData.getColumn(). I proposed a patch that would change the
number of queries to find out all columns in a table from 2 * N + 1 to 1 (N
being the number of columns reported) by using some outer joins. I also
fixed the fact that getColumns() only returned columns that had a default
defined. OTOH, I did not use to change the code required for obtaining a
column's remarks (by using col_description() for 7.2 and requested by Tom
Lane).
Finally, I have found a way to get all the column details in a single query
*and* use col_description() for 7.2 servers. A patch is attached. It
overrules Ren? Pijlman's fix for this that was committed just today, but
still used N + 1 queries (sorry Ren? ;-) )
I also fixed the return values for TABLE_CAT and TABLE_SCHEM from "" to
null, to be more standard compliant (and requested in Ren?'s mail found at
http://fts.postgresql.org/db/mw/msg.html?mid=1034253).
As always, the JDBC1 version has not been tested as I have no JDK 1.1

Define a new function, GetCurrentTransactionStartTimeUsec() to get the time
to this precision.
Allow now() and timestamp 'now' to use this higher precision result so
we now have fractional seconds in this "constant".
Add timestamp without time zone type.
Move previous timestamp type to timestamp with time zone.
Accept another ISO variant for date/time values: yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss
(note the "T" separating the day from hours information).
Remove 'current' from date/time types; convert to 'now' in input.
Separate time and timetz regression tests.
Separate timestamp and timestamptz regression test.
check *can* return HEAPTUPLE_INSERT_IN_PROGRESS or HEAPTUPLE_DELETE_IN_PROGRESS,
even though we have ShareLock on the relation. To wit, this can happen
if the tuple was inserted/deleted by our own transaction. Per report from
Justin Clift 9/23.
salt generation code. He also urged using better random source
and making possible to choose using bcrypt and xdes rounds more
easily. So, here's patch:
* For all salt generation, use Solar Designer's own code. This
is mostly due fact that his code is more fit for get_random_bytes()
style interface.
* New function: gen_salt(type, rounds). This lets specify iteration
count for algorithm.
* random.c: px_get_random_bytes() function.
Supported randomness soure: /dev/urandom, OpenSSL PRNG, libc random()
Default: /dev/urandom.
* Draft description of C API for pgcrypto functions.
New files: API, crypt-gensalt.c, random.c

summary of changes:
. removal of the tablename property from build.xml
. addition of a dropTable method in JDBC2Tests and cleanups of many
methods in the same
. all tests now use non-deprecated assertXYZ methods instead of the
deprecated assert method
. failure in TimestampTest (testSetTimestamp) fixed. The failure is
because testSetTimestamp was inserting a timestamp with hour 7 but
checkTimeTest was expecting a timestamp with hour 8. AFAICS, there are
no issues wrt daylight savings time and timestamps being pushed in and
pulled out (but more explicit tests should be added in the future)
. failure in TimeTest (testGetTime) fixed. Times to be inserted were
interpreted in the localtime zone but checking was done with the
assumption that the insertion was done in GMT.
. formatting changes in a few of the source files (because I found
it convenient to have consistent formatting while working on them). The
formatting is consistent with the new format for java source files in
PostgreSQL.
