>What value does the jdbc driver return from the various getXXX()
functions when the DB return value is null
i think this is undefined. what you need to do is first call your getXXX()
call and then follow up with a wasNull() call.
>But for String s = r.getStr("col") I get a value that prints out as "null"
if you tried doing the following, i think you'd see the same thing happening
String s;
System.out.println("s=" + s);
the printing of null isn't to do with the database, its to do with the
default behaviour of the String class, even though you have a null instance.
