Thread: [PATCH] Ability to PreparedStatement.setObject(#, int[])
Hello, (Find Unified Context Diff below against 7.2 shipping sources) Currently there is no way to set an int[] object to an INTEGER[] in Postgres with JDBC, unless you create a string and do it. However, reading p266-267 of JDBC API Tutorial and Reference, 2nd Ed by White, Fisher, Cattell, Hamilton, Hapner, indicates that we should be able to setObject it and have it work. The current 7.2 drivers do not support this functionality, that of calling setObject() with an array. Instead, the driver tries to use object serialization to store it. In theory, any base type or String array should be converted to the appropriate array format and stored in an array type in the database. I have only patched it to recognize an int[] array to demonstrate what should be done. If people wish, I can extend my patch to all base array types other than byte (which is already handled).
