Ok. Suppose there was metadata available. How would you
rewrite the function PreparedStatement.writeBytes() such that
it writes the bytes directly into the column? Since that class
does everything through heavy use of String manipulation, I
can't see how to do it. Is there a way? I tried this:
public void setBytes(int parameterIndex, byte x[]) throws SQLException { set(parameterIndex, new String(x)); }
It barfed.
