Bruce Momjian d99794e613 Attached is a patch for current CVS, consisting of a cvs diff -c
for the changed files and a few new files:
- test/jdbc2/BatchExecuteTest.java
- util/MessageTranslator.java
- jdbc2/PBatchUpdateException.java

As an aside, is this the best way to submit a patch consisting
of both changed and new files? Or is there a smarter cvs command
which gets them all in one patch file?

This patch fixes batch processing in the JDBC driver to be
JDBC-2 compliant. Specifically, the changes introduced by this
patch are:

1) Statement.executeBatch() no longer commits or rolls back a
transaction, as this is not prescribed by the JDBC spec. Its up
to the application to disable autocommit and to commit or
rollback the transaction. Where JDBC talks about "executing the
statements as a unit", it means executing the statements in one
round trip to the backend for better performance, it does not
mean executing the statements in a transaction.

2) Statement.executeBatch() now throws a BatchUpdateException()
as required by the JDBC spec. The significance of this is that
the receiver of the exception gets the updateCounts of the
commands that succeeded before the error occurred. In order for
the messages to be translatable, java.sql.BatchUpdateException
is extended by org.postgresql.jdbc2.PBatchUpdateException() and
the localization code is factored out from
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException to a separate singleton class
org.postgresql.util.MessageTranslator.

3) When there is no batch or there are 0 statements in the batch
when Statement.executeBatch() is called, do not throw an
SQLException, but silently do nothing and return an update count
array of length 0. The JDBC spec says "Throws an SQLException if
the driver does not support batch statements", which is clearly
not the case. See testExecuteEmptyBatch() in
BatchExecuteTest.java for an example. The message
postgresql.stat.batch.empty is removed from the language
specific properties files.

4) When Statement.executeBatch() is performed, reset the
statement's list of batch commands to empty. The JDBC spec isn't
100% clear about this. This behaviour is only documented in the
Java tutorial
(http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jdbc/jdbc2dot0/batchupdates.html).
Note that the Oracle JDBC driver also resets the statement's
list in executeBatch(), and this seems the most reasonable
interpretation.

5) A new test case is added to the JDBC test suite which tests
various aspects of batch processing. See the new file
BatchExecuteTest.java.

PostgreSQL Data Base Management System (formerly known as Postgres, then
as Postgres95).
  
This directory contains the development version of 7.2 of the
PostgreSQL database server.  The server is not 100% ANSI SQL compliant,
but it gets closer with every release.  After you unzip and untar the
distribution file, look at file INSTALL for the installation notes and
file HISTORY for the changes.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/.  For more information look at our WWW
home page located at http://www.postgreSQL.org/.
