commit f7c745130ba8e53a60a8cc21fd6173dbbc015f85
Author: Darrel Schneider <dschnei...@pivotal.io>
AuthorDate: Wed Mar 14 18:23:23 2018 -0700

    GEODE-4693: fix JDBCLoader on non-object pdx fields (#1517)
    
    If the region mapping has a pdxClassName then the JdbcLoader will look for 
a pdx type that is already defined and use its field types when creating the 
PdxInstance. If the pdx type does not have a field that corresponds to an 
existing column then an exception is thrown.
    
    A pdx field of type "char" or an instance of "java.lang.Character" will be 
sent to SQL as a String of size 1.
    A pdx field of type "Date" will be sent to SQL as a java.sql.Timestamp.
    
    A new external API was added to GemFireCache. It is the method 
"registerPdxMetaData".
    It only needs to be called on clients if they are going to do reads using a 
JdbcLoader of data that wa s not written using the JdbcWriter or 
JdbcAsyncWriter.
