Executing a Stored Procedure passing Oracle Defined User Type

Question

Hello All,
I am having problems in executing a SP from Java. Here is the detailed info of the prob I am facing.
I have a SP created which takes in a Table Type as one of the input parameter. This table type say "SERVICE" is of the Object Type "OBJ_SERVICETOMOVE".
Now I am writing a simple Java Clinet which executes the procedure. and below is the sample code I am pasting.
public class DBClient {
     public static void main(String args[])
          DBConnection dbclass = new DBConnection();
          dbclass.getConnection();
          //String movingOrder = args[0];
          ArrayList arrList = new ArrayList();
          arrList.add("10001");
          arrList.add("10002");
          arrList.add("10003");
          java.sql.Date date = null;
          try
               SimpleDateFormat objSDF = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
               java.util.Date dtCcDate = (java.util.Date) objSDF.parse("02/01/2005");
               java.sql.Date localdate = new java.sql.Date(dtCcDate.getTime());
               date = localdate;
          catch(ParseException e)
               System.out.println("Parse Exception CAUGHT"+e.getMessage());
          combttmOE04ServicesToMove inputParam = new combttmOE04ServicesToMove(arrList);
          try
               OracleCallableStatement cs = dbclass.getCallableStatement("saveMovingOrder4Service(?,?,?)");
               cs.setInt(1,10);
               cs.setInt(2,date);
               cs.setObject(3,inputParam);
               dbclass.executeStoreProc();
          catch(SQLException e)
               e.printStackTrace();
          catch(Exception e)
               System.out.println("Exception CAUGHT"+e.getMessage());
The error I am getting is
java.sql.SQLException: Invalid column type
at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.throwSqlException(DBError.java)

at oracle.jdbc.driver.OraclePreparedStatement.setObject(OraclePreparedStatement.java)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.OraclePreparedStatement.setObject(OraclePreparedStatement.java)
at DBClient.main(DBClient.java:84)
Can anyone of you advise me on this

Rags,
Have you looked at the JDBC sample code available from here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/index.html
And the "how-to" documents, available from here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/java/codesnippet/jdbc/index.html
I once did something similar to what (I think) you are trying to do -- but unfortunately I lost that code when the hard-disk on my PC died. I do remember though, finding how to do it from the above-listed URLs.
Good Luck,
Avi.
