Hi

I noticed that all jdbc drivers return the Integer java type for a
SMALLINT database type. Is this intended or is this a bug? The
recommendation in the JDBC book (Hamiltan, Catell, Fisher) says that
SMALLINT should be mappped to the Java short type.

If I want to changes this, is all I have to do is change the line in
/src/interfaces/jdbc/postgresql/jdbc1/ResultSet.java from

case Types.SMALLINT
return new Integer(getInt(columnIndex)
to

case Types.SMALLINT
return new Short(getShort(columnIndex)
?
