Hello I'm working with mysql 5 / jboss4.2.2/EJB3/JDK6 I want from a nativequery read a field of CHAR(n) in a database, when I user varchar , it s works, but if i use char(n), I always get a Character instead of a String. | CREATE TABLE testchar( | myid CHAR(2) PRIMARY KEY | ) When i user native query to retrive data then I get a java.lang.Character instead of a String. | q=em.createNativeQuery("SELECT myid FROM testchar"); | q.setMaxResults(2); | List<Object[]> r= q.getResultList(); | log.info("class="+ r.get(0).getClass()+" "+r.get(0)); | -->return java.lang.Character and value is the first character of the row There is someone who have an idea of what is wrong?
