#16 getXXX typecasting

[Anonymous]

i can't seem to get {ResultSet}.getBoolean() to work
with a TINYINT column (using mm.mysql). according to
the JDBC docs on sun.com, the getXXX methods should be
capable of some typecasting... for instance (from
sun.com):
--------------
getBoolean: BIT (recommended)
Can also read TINYINT, SMALLINT, INTEGER, BIGINT,
REAL, FLOAT, DOUBLE, DECIMAL, NUMERIC, CHAR, VARCHAR,
LONGVARCHAR
--------------

obviously, it could be an error on my part.
