Description

kevin menard noticed in a beta of java 6 some time ago ( CAY-549 ) that the interface definitions for some classes/interfaces in javax.sql have changed to also include a new class, javax.sql.Wrapper, in the implements clause, and as a result, the cayenne codebase does not compile against a java 6 sdk.

i've tapped out a rough patch that sets up a shallow hierarchy for the relevant cayenne classes which are affected by this, and provides some simple abstract implementations for Connection, DataSource, PooledDataSource and ResultSetMetaData in order to satisfy the new interface requirements that include Wrapper in their implements declarations.

( theres also a couple of other classes which get some new abstract/interface methods, check the patch for more details )
