Re: 8.0 beta4: Exception when including catalog qualifier in SELECT from

The following statements work fine in 7.4

                                    Connection conn =3D
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/psdb","xxx
","");

                                    Statement stmt =3D
conn.createStatement();

                                    stmt.execute("CREATE TABLE
\"public\".tt (ans bool)");

                                    stmt.close();

                                    stmt =3D conn.createStatement();

                                    ResultSet rs =3D
stmt.executeQuery("SELECT \"psdb \".\"public\".\"tt\".\"ans\" FROM
\"psdb \".\"public\".\"tt\"");

                                    while (rs.next()) {

=20
System.out.println(rs.getBoolean(1));

                                    }

                                    rs.close();

But in 8.0 Beta4 we get the following exception at the SELECT
executeQuery line:

This seems to be related to having the catalog qualifier.  There is no
problem when just the schema is included. i.e.=20

            ResultSet rs =3D stmt.executeQuery("SELECT
\"public\".\"tt\".\"ans\" FROM \"public\".\"tt\"");

works OK.

=20

Also, there is no problem with UPDATE or INSERT statements when the
catalog is included.  Only in the SELECT statement.

=20

I did note that the driver does return false to
connection.getMetaData().supportsCatalogsInDataManipulation(), so, there
is actually no reason to expect that catalog qualifiers would be
supported. However, as noted, it did work OK in 7.4 (even though the
supportsCatalogsInDataManipulation() returned false there also).

=20

Same type of error is returned just running fully qualified SQL
statements in the Query Tool in pgAdmin.

Thanks.
