           Summary: Compile failure under Java 1.6 in DBConnection class
           Product: Kepler
           Version: 1.0.0beta2
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW

          Priority: P2
         Component: general

org.ecoinformatics.util.DBConnection is "a simple wrapper around a
java.sql.Connection." However, the Connection class has some added methods in
the newly released Java 1.6. This causes the error
    [javac]
C:\work\kepler\build\src\org\ecoinformatics\util\DBConnectionFactory
.java:74: org.ecoinformatics.util.DBConnection is abstract; cannot be
instantiat
ed
    [javac]          return new DBConnection(conn);
    [javac]                 ^
when Kepler is compiled under Java 1.6.
Need to wrap additonal 1.6 methods but still insure the code works for java 1.5
and below!
