driver fails to handle strings in query statements properly

    I am using jdbc7.0-1.2.jar.  I am getting a "No class found for
unkown" when I use strings in my query statements such as 'Container'
seen in the query below.  These queries work fine when I use Oracle or
MySQL.  This looks like a bug to me.  I can work around  this by
explicitly casting the string in the query statement like:
 'Container'::varchar.

*****************Inside LDMSQLPLUGIN About to query db ----> select
container_20_ft_qty AS QTY_OH, 'Container' AS NOMENCLATURE from
ue_summary_mtmc
 where uic = 'WAQJAA'
 EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I caught an exception on resultSet.getObject(i + 1) -->
Container
No class found for unknown.

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks in advance,
