issuing insert preparedstatement queries with default values

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hi,

Is there a way to use the DEFAULT per column value on an INSERT sql in
PG through the PreparedStatement JDBC API? It'd be nice so that I don't
have to maintain a secondary list of PreparedStatements or a list of
default values maintained outside of the database definition.

e.g:

INSERT INTO foo (a, b) (?, ?)

where b has a default value in the database and a is something that I
might set to some other value.

I'm using postgresql-8.3-603.jdbc4.jar against a 8.3 postgresql server.

Thanks,
Johnny
