Bernt M. Johnsen commented on DERBY-1938:
-----------------------------------------

NOTE: Tutorial, 3rd ed says (25.1.6 p. 653): "The method setObject, however, 
can take a null value only if the JDBC type is specified".

Although the tutorial is not the spec, it's clearly the intention that the SQL 
NULL in JDBC should behave like SQL NULL in the SQL spec, and that JDBC 
compliant applications should *not* call setObject(n, null) and that drivers 
are not required to implement it to be JDBC compliant.

> Add support for setObject(<arg>, null)

>                 Key: DERBY-1938
>                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1938
>             Project: Derby
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: JDBC
>            Reporter: Dag H. Wanvik
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Derby presently does not implement support for the method
> PreparedStatement.setObject (and similarly for CallableStatement.setObject) 
> when the supplied value is null, unless a type argument (3rd arg) is also 
> present. 
> That is, in:
>     void setObject(int parameterIndex,
>                               Object x)
>                               throws SQLException
> x can not be null. 
> Derby will presently throw an SQLException (client: XJ021, embedded: 22005)
> if x is null when calling this method on a preparedStatement.
> Porting some applications may be made easier if this restriction is lifted.
> See also discussion in DERBY-1904.
