Renaud, What sort of problems are you having building with ant 1.5 and jdk 1.1? I don't have any problems building with ant 1.6 and jdk1.1. Also, have you tried the prebuilt jar files on jdbc.postgresql.org? --Barry Renaud Waldura wrote: > Dear PostgreSQL JDBC driver developers, > > I was pleased to find that your JDBC driver for PostgreSQL only requires JDK > 1.1 for minimal functionality.
