Hi,
I'm thinking of upgrading from 8.0 to 8.1, but I'm
wondering why the change in
AbstractJdbc2Statement.setFloat() (and elsewhere in
the class) of floats now being Oid.FLOAT8 instead of
Ois.FLOAT4?
In 8.0, I have a few functions that take a REAL as
input, and I use setFloat (the 4-byte float equivalent
in java) to pass the values. But in 8.1, using
setFloat() now looks for functions that take DOUBLE
PRECISION because the change in mapping.
I know I can change my functions, tables and java
methods to DOUBLE PRECISION and setDouble() to use
8-byte floats to avoid this issue, but again just
wondering what's up with the 4-byte float support.
thanks,
Trevor Baker
