@Completely remove /contrib/retep, with Peter's approval;  now on Source
Forge.
@
text
@Before you ask what retepTools are, they are my personal suite of utilities.
About 90% of them are JDBC related (either they use JDBC, or I use them in
developing the JDBC driver).

Now, because of various reasons I won't go into now, in January 2001 I decided
to release the entire lot to the public. I could have used something like
SourceForge, but as they are mainly JDBC related I thought here is the best
place.

Now all (bar retepPDF, see end-note) will over the next few months be going
into the /contrib/retep directory. They range from simple XML Inport/Export
classes to entire sub-systems that can be plugged into applications.

All this lot were never released, so I'm placing them under PostgreSQL's
licence.

Please refer to Implementation for details of what package does what.

It all requires Java2SE (JDK1.2) as a minimum. I do have some plans for some
EJB tools later, so those will need Java2EE, but not yet ;-)

retepPDF: This is not included for two reasons:

1: It's big and not really related in any way to PostgreSQL
2: More importantly, I (may be foolishly) released it some 3 years ago under
   the LGPL. As a few people have added to it, it's not really possible to
   change the licence, and I don't want to polute PostgreSQL's source tree ;-)

retepGraph: This was an old graphics library. It's been obsolete for 3 years
now, so it's not going in.

        - These methods in org.postgresql.jdbc2.ResultSet are now implemented:
            getBigDecimal(int) ie: without a scale (why did this get missed?)
            getBlob(int)
            getCharacterStream(int)
            getConcurrency()
            getDate(int,Calendar)
            getFetchDirection()
            getFetchSize()
            getTime(int,Calendar)
            getTimestamp(int,Calendar)
            getType()
          NB: Where int represents the column name, the associated version
              taking a String were already implemented by calling the int
              version.
        - These methods no longer throw the not implemented but the new noupdate
          error. This is in preparation for the Updateable ResultSet support
          which will overide these methods by extending the existing class to
          implement that functionality, but needed to show something other than
          notimplemented:
            cancelRowUpdates()
            deleteRow()
        - Added new error message into errors.properties "postgresql.noupdate"
          This is used by jdbc2.ResultSet when an update method is called and
          the ResultSet is not updateable. A new method notUpdateable() has been
          added to that class to throw this exception, keeping the binary size
          down.
        - Added new error message into errors.properties "postgresql.psqlnotimp"
          This is used instead of unimplemented when it's a feature in the
          backend that is preventing this method from being implemented.
        - Removed getKeysetSize() as its not part of the ResultSet API

        - Applied modified patch from Richard Bullington-McGuire
          <rbulling@@microstate.com>. I had to modify it as some of the code
          patched now exists in different classes, and some of it actually
          patched obsolete code.

        - Updated Implementation to include both ANT & JBuilder
        - Updated README to reflect the changes since 7.0
	- Created jdbc.jpr file which allows JBuilder to be used to edit the
          source. JBuilder _CAN_NOT_ be used to compile. You must use ANT for
          that. It's only to allow JBuilders syntax checking to improve the
          drivers source. Refer to Implementation for more details
