Result of using getBoolean to retrieve a value from a CHAR
column
With the IBM Data Server Driver for JDBC and SQLJ, when you execute
ResultSet.getBoolean or CallableStatement.getBoolean to retrieve a Boolean
value from a CHAR column, and the column contains the value "false" or "0", the
value false is returned. If the column contains any other value, true is returned.
With the JDBC/SQLJ driver for z/OS, when you execute ResultSet.getBoolean or
CallableStatement.getBoolean to retrieve a Boolean value from a CHAR column,
and the column contains the value "0", the value false is returned. If the column
contains any other value, true is returned.

Supported methods
For a list of methods that the IBM Data Server Driver for JDBC and SQLJ supports,
see "Driver support for JDBC APIs".
Use of progressive streaming by the JDBC drivers
For IBM Data Server Driver for JDBC and SQLJ, Version 3.50 and later, progressive
streaming, which is also known as dynamic data format, behavior is the default for
LOB retrieval, for connections to DB2 Database for Linux, UNIX, and Windows
Version 9.5 and later.
