Hello,
I have created the following table:
create table "JsonTest0" ("id" BIGSERIAL NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,"json" jsonb DEFAULT ' {"a":"v1","b":2} ' NOT NULL)
When I'm creating and executing a simple statement using the exist operator then I get expected results back:
connection.createStatement.executeQuery("select x2.\"json\" from \"JsonTest0\" x2 where (x2.\"json\" ? 'c') = true")
When I try to execute the same query using a prepared statement, I get the following:
connection.prepareStatement("select x2.\"json\" from \"JsonTest0\" x2 where (x2.\"json\" ? 'c') = true").executeQuery()
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: No value specified for parameter 1.
at org.postgresql.core.v3.SimpleParameterList.checkAllParametersSet(SimpleParameterList.java:216)

at org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.executeWithFlags(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:417)
at org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.executeQuery(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:302)
So it looks like the ? character, which is used as the jsonb exists operator is confusing the prepared statement parser, which treats it as a parameter substitution instead.
Is this expected behaviour and am I stuck with non-prepared statements when using the new ?, ?& and ?| jsonb operators ?
Any other workarounds, like escaping or function aliases that you may know of ?
I tested with both: 9.3-1100-jdbc41 and 9.4-1200-jdbc41-SNAPSHOT versions
