Yes, that's what I'm doing when getParameterMetaData() fails. But it makes things a bit more complicated
This is part of my SQL client that supports multiple DBMS and offers a DBMS independent way to call procedures that
have OUT parameters.
I was just curious. Many JDBC drivers don't even implement getParameterMetaData() but the error message in Postgres'
exceptionis misleading because there is such a function - and the fact that it works _after_ registering an OUT
parametermakes it even more confusing.
