Java equivalent data type for chkpass.

Hello,

I am updating chkpass data type column using JDBC preparedstatement, but it give me following exception.

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: column "password" is of type chkpass but expression is of type character varying

Is anybody aware of the data type we should set for this password column?

Thanks
