idle in transaction

I recently posted this on pgsql-admin and was directed to try this list
as well.

We recently upgraded postgres from 7.3 to 7.4, along with the JDBC jar,
and noticed all the backend processes/connections are left in the "idle
in transaction" state where before they where left in the "idle" state.
Has something changed in the 7.4 jdbc driver vs 7.3 which might be
causing this?
Note
We call setAutoCommit(FALSE) on every connection when created.

The driver does a "commit; begin" when commit() is called. In an ideal
world it'd delay the 'begin' until the first statement is executed (and
batch execution with that statement to avoid an extra roundtrip) but
currently it doesn't. There is a TODO comment to this effect in the driver.

This area has certainly changed since 7.3, most notably how server-side
autocommit (not JDBC autocommit) is handled was changed. The 7.3 driver
appears to have used 'set autocommit = off' with a 7.3 driver vs. a 7.3
server, but it reverted to using commit;begin in all cases after
server-side autocommit disappeared again in 7.4.

Oliver,
Thanks for the explanation.
This is consistent with my move from 7.3 to 7.4.  We have a some
erroneous code in our system which is executing some statements and not
closing out the transaction with a proper rollback or commit.  The "idle
in transaction" was revealing this. With the 7.4 implementation I'll
need to dig deeper to find the culprit.
