After the rather confusing input about a third-party JDBC driver, I
can confirm that access to UDT arrays is possible via the standard
JDBC driver, if done like this:
// This returns a serialised array. Not very convenient
ResultSet rs =...
String serialised = rs.getObject(index);
Or like this
// This allows for iterating over array elements
// and assembling it manually. I'll use this method
// in jOOQ
ResultSet rs =...
ResultSet iterator = rs.getArray(index).getResultSet();
But not like this
// This would be most convenient
ResultSet rs =...
Object[] array = rs.getArray(index).getArray();

The question was answered in another thread. I can live with the above
workaround...
