Ignore this. I realized after taking a break that it doesn't work with
primitive types. I think the thing I find most frustrating with Java is
that it doesn't treat primitive types in a consistent manner with
classes derived from Object.

The documentation suggests doing a count to determine what situation you
are in, then issuing the appropriate select once you know. But that
will result in an extra trip to the DB. In a common scenario where you
are querying a primary key, you know that you will get zero or one row
back. So rather than having to put the single row select into a
try-catch block, a more natural paradigm would be to assign the result
and then check the result for null.
