PostgreSQL JDBC Driver 42.6.0 Released

Notable changes

Fixed

  • fix: use PhantomReferences instead of Obejct.finalize() to track Connection leaks PR #2847
    The change replaces all uses of Object.finalize() with PhantomReferences. The leaked resources (Connections) are tracked in a helper thread that is active as long as there are connections in use. By default, the thread keeps running for 30 seconds after all the connections are released. The timeout is set with pgjdbc.config.cleanup.thread.ttl system property.
