As subject, i got a stored function that returns an int2
i successfully call it using a callable statement, exactly as it is written in 
the manual, but when the getShort expression is executed, i receive a 
"Exception in thread Exception in thread "Timer-1" 
java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Short
    at 
org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.getShort(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:1681)

    at java.util.TimerThread.run(Unknown Source)

I thought about a workaround and tried to call it using a Types.INTEGER, 
instead of Types.SMALLINT, but, CORRECTLY, the jdbc driver tells me:
A CallableStatement function was executed and the return was of type 
java.sql.Types=5 however type java.sql.Types=4 was registered.

I'm using pgdev.307.jdbc3 driver with a PostgreSQL Database Server 8.0.0-beta4

I saw in the source code of the driver that, to obtain a short, an Object is 
casted to Integer and a (short) Integer.getValue() is called, this way
(short)((Integer)callResult).intValue ()
I don't know if a Integer.shortValue() would work

The code I've used follows

The Java code
CallableStatement cstm = conn.prepareCall("{? = call myFunction(?)}");
cstm.registerOutParameter(1,Types.SMALLINT);
cstm.setInt(2, anObject.getIntVar());
cstm.execute();
short shortResult = cstm.getShort(1);
cstm.close();

The PG SQL function
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION myFunction(int4) RETURNS int2 AS
$BODY$
    SELECT    shortCol
    FROM    aTable
$BODY$
LANGUAGE 'sql' VOLATILE;

Best regards

Federico
