It may have been this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2695684/using-an-odbc-application-with-a-jdbc-driver
Looks like Vertica has a few differences in the types oid.
Unfortunately there is at least a conflict: from the patch I see oid
16 is used by Vertica as a decimal type, while Postgres uses the same
oid for the bool type. A solution could be to detect vertica at
connection time (which seems done by checking server_version = 0, I
don't know if there is a more robust way) and re-organize the
typecaster map accordingly.
