> In JdbcCommon (used by such processors as ExecuteSQL and QueryDatabaseTable), if a ResultSet column is not a CLOB or BLOB, its value is retrieved using getObject(), then further processing is done based on the SQL type and/or the Java class of the value.
> However, in Oracle when getObject() is called on a Timestamp column, it returns an Oracle-specific TIMESTAMP class which does not inherit from java.sql.Timestamp or java.sql.Date. Thus the processing "falls through" and its value is attempted to be inserted as a string, which violates the Avro schema (which correctly recognized it as a long of timestamp logical type).
> At least for Oracle, the right way to process a Timestamp column is to call getTimestamp() rather than getObject(), the former returns a java.sql.Timestamp object which would correctly be processed by the current code. I would hope that all drivers would support this but we would want to test on (at least) MySQL, Oracle, and PostgreSQL.
