AbstractMethodError while calling PreparedStatement.setBinaryStream()

Question

I am getting AbstractMethodError while calling PreparedStatement.setBinaryStream(int, InputStream) for a BLOB column
I am using Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit
JDBC Driver ojdbc6.jar (downloaded from oracle website corresponding to 11.2.0.2 version)
JDK 6
I understand this error is due to my code calling abstract method which is not available in JDBC 3.x and it requires JDBC 4.0
But I am not able to find any traces of usage of earlier version of driver.
Debugging steps performed with results are as below
1) I enabled -verbose:class VM argument that outputs all the classes loaded along with jar from which it loads. Everywhere i see ojdbc6.jar (No reference to older or any other jdbc driver jar file)
2) Below is code segment and its output
Connection con = getConnection(); // get connection
DatabaseMetaData d= con.getMetaData();
d.getDatabaseProductName(); // output: Oracle
d.getDatabaseProductVersion(); // output: Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production
d.getDatabaseMajorVersion(); // output: 11
d.getDatabaseMinorVersion(); // output: 2
d.getDriverName(); // output: Oracle JDBC driver
d.getDriverVersion(); // output: 11.2.0.2.0
d.getDriverMajorVersion(); // output: 11
d.getDriverMinorVersion(); // output: 2
d.supportsGetGeneratedKeys(); // output: true
3) I updated code (its third party component, so not suppose to update :( )
Added third argument whick works fine (it means at runtime it is using older jdbc driver???)
PreparedStatement.setBinaryStream(int, InputStream, (int)length
Please let me know if i am missing anything here... how can i solve this issue?
Thanks!

Answer 1

From my initial post
I am getting AbstractMethodError while calling PreparedStatement.setBinaryStream(int, InputStream) for a BLOB column
3) I updated code (its third party component, so not suppose to update )
Added third argument whick works fine (it means at runtime it is using older jdbc driver???)(3) will not work if correct ojdbc6.jar is used. Because third argument is int and not long. long will work with ojdbc6 but will not work with older version.
I am using third party component and they are using - PreparedStatement.setBinaryStream(int, InputStream)
It should work with JDK 6, Oracle 11g and ojdbc6.jar driver.
I am sure its simple classpath issue or some configuration mismatch - just couldn't see it right now.
I will probably create new workspace / or test on other system now
Thanks!
