Well, in pure SQL I don't think you could do it without resorting to
ugly tricks like defining an all_days table that had one row per day in
your range, then doing something like, "select from all_days a join xxx
x where a.day >= x.start_date and a.day <= x.end_date"

So . . . don't do that.  What you want isn't really a pure relational
operation, so SQL isn't the right language for it.  Either do it in your
application code, or write a server-side function.

In either case, this is more of a pgsql-general question, since it's not
specific to JDBC at all.

No problem if you're willing to use one of PostgreSQL's built-in
set-returning functions in your target list.

SELECT (
    start_date +
    generate_series(0,end_date-start_date) * interval '1 day'
    )::date AS "range"
FROM your_table;

Cheers,
D
