Hi,

We just find out a small bug with the getBigDecimal(int i) method in
ResultSet (postgresql 7.1 beta6)

Th symptom is :

We cannot read a decimal value with getBigDecimal() although, we can set it

We solve the problem temporary by replacing the source original method

    public java.math.BigDecimal getBigDecimal(int columnIndex) throws
SQLException
    {
      // Now must call BigDecimal with a scale otherwise JBuilder barfs
      return getBigDecimal(columnIndex,0);
    }

by

    public java.math.BigDecimal getBigDecimal(int columnIndex) throws
SQLException
    {
      // Now must call BigDecimal with a scale otherwise JBuilder barfs
      return getBigDecimal(columnIndex,-1);
    }

So it does not perform a setScale in the method getBigDecimal(int column,
int scale)

It works well for us.
