I am using version 7.0.2 of postgres on Redhat Linux 6.1.  I am also using
Sun's Java 1.3 JVM, using the java2 JDBC driver from postgres.  I have a table
containing several fields of "integer".  I have one row in the table where
these integer are null.  When I retrieve this row's values with my driver by
calling "getObject()" on the resultSet, it returns an Integer object containing
0.  The value is not 0, it should be null.  I verified the fields are null in
the database by issuing a query by hand.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug with the driver?

Thanks,
Martin Zeigler
