Re: Timestamp Conversion Woes Redux

Oliver,

setString is "special" because historically this is what we see in
the upgrade problems. People try to insert a date using setString
('dateval') etc.

Also we have historically told people to use setString to insert pg
specific types, when there was no corresponding java type.

I am not suggesting that we type all parameters as UNKNOWN only
String parameters.
