Re: RowSet error

More information: The problem was originating in
org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2ResultSetMataData, in getColumnDisplaySize(int
column). For some reason, typmod was set to -5. This was down by the 'variable
length fields' comment, at the bottom of the method. I put in another check to
make sure that if a negative return value was being attempted, bump it to zero.
That seems to have fixed it.

But again, this is very ugly and dirty and wrong. It'll be nice if Sun comes up
with an answer for this.

I did attempt to implement the fix suggested here:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-jdbc/2005-02/msg00049.php. However, I
still get the same problem. I'm not sure if I've missed something, or if
there's another call somewhere. The stack trace of the exception is:

java.sql.SQLException: Invalid column display size. Cannot be less than zero
at
javax.sql.rowset.RowSetMetaDataImpl.setColumnDisplaySize(RowSetMetaDataImpl.java
:267)
at
com.sun.rowset.CachedRowSetImpl.initMetaData(CachedRowSetImpl.java:702)
at com.sun.rowset.CachedRowSetImpl.populate(CachedRowSetImpl.java:620)

The specific code trying to populate it seems to be relatively simple:
rslt = stmt.executeQuery(query);
crs.populate(rslt);

That's about all that I have.

You have not shown what you have done and what error you are still getting, so
no one can really tell what the problem is.

The original problem is still in Sun's hands as Amit Handa said he'd ask around
at Sun to see if this is their problem or ours.
