I am using jdbc to connect to a postgresql database in a java application (actually the app is written in Groovy). I have postgresql set up to use the 'trust' authentication method. Is it possible to open a jdbc connection without specifying a password? When I try to use the normal constructor with a blank password, it fails with

Exception in thread "Thread-2" org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "myuser"

Even though, from the command line, this works fine

psql -U myuser mydatabase
Welcome to psql 8.3.5, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

      \g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
      \q to quit
