I used to do Oracle development and could choose between PLSQL and the java
alternative.
I chose PLSQL because java offerred no clear advantage, and it wasn't really
java. You
could use String, but for performance Oracle recommended some proprietary
string class.

Hi,
This sounds great. Sorry for not being responsive on the pgsql-general.
I'll read up on this thread during the weekend. Short term, this is what
I think needs to be done:
1. Create a PL/Java 1.4 from current CVS. It compiles and runs with
PostgreSQL 8.2.

Great to hear that - what we need to do now is to sit down (I mean
Thomas Hallgren and others) on the pljava code and see where help is

Hello everyone,
I would like to start very important (from my point of view) topic - the
future of pljava in PostgreSQL development. Thomas Hallgren (creator of
pljava) has made a great job setting up the project, but there are many
