JDBC ResultSetMetaData.getColumnType and getColumnTypeName work properly? - Mailing list pgsql-interfaces

If I create a table thus:

CREATE TABLE title (
    title        text    NOT NULL,
    editions    int4[]
);

and through the JDBC ResultMetaData.getColumnType() interface try to get
the
type of the 'editions' column, I get the value sql.Types.OTHER.  I would
have
guessed it would have been Types.ARRAY.  Am I missing something?

Also getColumnTypeName() returns _int4; is that correct?

I get:
