Hi, I'd like to announce the availability of the version 0.7.2 of the native postgresql driver for OpenOffice.org database API for windows and linux x86.
The driver's homepage can be found here: http://dba.openoffice.org/drivers/postgresql/index.html Compared to Version 0.7.1, the following things have changed. In case, the described problems don't affect you, there is no reason to upgrade Changes: Version 0.7.2 * postgresql >= 8.1.x fully supported In former versions, the driver could not edit/create a table with postgresql 8.1.0 and above. This has been fixed (this was, because postgresql 8.1 does some stricter SQL checking). * Type content recognition The postgresql function, that returns the type of a certain column of a result set was not used correctly, this has been fixed. No content type recognition is needed anymore (was introduced in 0.7.1) (thx a lot for the hint from the postgresql community). About the driver: The driver allows to directly use the postgresql database from OpenOffice.org without any other wrapper layer such as odbc or jdbc. The driver is aimed at the 1.1.x and 2.x OpenOffice.org versions, it does not work with OOo1.0.x trees. It should work with all postgresql servers of version 7.3.x and above (including 8.x ).
