        Appends a Boolean value. Refer to : http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/static/datatype-boolean.html In PostgreSQL the following are the values that are value for a boolean field Valid literal values for the "true" state are: TRUE, 't', 'true', 'y', 'yes', '1' Valid literal values for the false" state are : FALSE, 'f', 'false', 'n', 'no', '0' To be consistent with the other data platforms we are using the values '1' and '0' for true and false states of a boolean field.
        Overrides:

        INTERNAL: Use the JDBC maxResults and firstResultIndex setting to compute a value to use when limiting the results of a query in SQL. These limits tend to be used in two ways. 1. MaxRows is the index of the last row to be returned (like JDBC maxResults) 2. MaxRows is the number of rows to be returned PostGreSQL uses case #2 and therefore the maxResults has to be altered based on the firstResultIndex
        Overrides:

        public boolean isJDBCExecuteCompliant()
        Calling a stored procedure query on PostgreSQL with no output parameters always returns true from an execute call regardless if a result set is returned or not.
