setString for char field

[Edward A Thompson]

I have a field defined as a char, and want to insert that field into a
database column defined as CHAR(1).

Is there a better way than:
PreparedStatement ps;
...
...
ps.setString(j++,String.valueOf(eoc.MEASURE_CAT_CODE));
...
...
which will allocate a String object every time?

No.

It does create a new String every time, but you could create one once
and use it instead of creating a new one everytime.
