Problem with DATE

Hi,
The following java code works fine using Oracle jdbc driver.
It works fine in PostgreSQL for BigDecimal and String etc. but for date it
throws error.

example:
ps = conn.prepareStatement("SELECT ?, ?, ?,?");
ps.setObject(1, new String("1.2"));
ps.setObject(2, new BigDecimal("1.2"));
ps.setObject(3, new String("2014-01-11 33:22:11"));
ps.setObject(4, Date.valueOf("2014-01-11"));

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: could not determine data type of
parameter $4

at TestSetDate.main(TestSetDate.java:39)

The above problem is solved after typecasting the 4th argument to date.
ps = conn.prepareStatement("SELECT ?, ?, ?,?::date");
OR
ps = conn.prepareStatement("SELECT ?, ?, ?,date(?)");

Is there any possibility to add something like PGdate in PostgreSQL jdbc
driver?
so that during migration from Oracle to PostgreSQL,there is no need to edit
the java code.
