convertFromJDBC

public java.lang.Object convertFromJDBC(java.lang.Object o)

Description copied from interface: FieldDescriptor

Method to support slurping records from a JDBC result set. Takes the result of a ResultSet.getObject() and converts it to the JavaObject type we use. In many cases, for strings and numbers, we should get away with this just being a pass-through.

Specified by:

convertFromJDBC in interface FieldDescriptor

Overrides:

convertFromJDBC in class Field
