In Java I'm trying to test for a null value, from a ResultSet, where the column is being cast to a primitive int type.

int iVal;
ResultSet rs = magicallyAppearingStmt.executeQuery(query);
if (rs.next()) {
  if (rs.getObject("ID_PARENT") != null && !rs.wasNull()) {
    iVal = rs.getInt("ID_PARENT");
  }
}

From the code fragment above, is there a better way to do this, and I assume that the second wasNull() test is redundant?

Educate us, and Thanks
