Updating ARRAYs in the Database

Question

Hi,
I'm having serious trouble with the code below. I'm attempting to create a method
in the SQL bean that will pass an Array to an Oracle function.
I have followed WebLogic's documentation on this, but I get the following error
when I run the code:
Problem in descriptor: Unsupported feature
------> EXCEPTION in setProspectsInfo: Invalid argument(s) in call
Any suggestions?
public void setProspectsInfo(Customer mycustomer) throws Exception {
CallableStatement cssn = myConn.prepareCall("{call ? := pkg_prospects.fn_ProspectsMain(?)}");
try{
Vector myVector = new Vector();
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getUniqueIdStr());
//myVector.addElement(null);
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getFirstName());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getLastName());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getMiddleInitial());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getApartmentNumber());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getBestTimeToCall());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getCity());
//myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getContactNote());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getDaytimePhone());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getEmailAddress());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getHomePhone());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getMailingAddress1());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getMailingAddress2());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getSocialSecurityNumber());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getState());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getTitle());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getZipCode4());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getZipCode5());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getBorrowerType());
String[] myStrings = new String[myVector.size()];
myStrings = (String[]) myVector.toArray(myStrings);
weblogic.jdbc.vendor.oracle.OracleArray myArray = null;
try {
//oracle.sql.ArrayDescriptor myDesc = oracle.sql.ArrayDescriptor.createDescriptor("STRARRAY",
myConn);
//myArray = new ARRAY (myDesc, myConn, myStrings);
//myArray.toString();
myArray = (weblogic.jdbc.vendor.oracle.OracleArray) cssn.getArray("STRARRAY");
//myArray.toString();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Problem in descriptor" + e.getMessage());
cssn.registerOutParameter(1, OracleTypes.NUMBER);
cssn.setArray(2, myArray);
     cssn.execute();
catch ( Exception e ){
System.out.println("------> EXCEPTION setProspectsInfo" + e.getMessage());
throw new Exception(e);

myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getFirstName());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getLastName());
myVector.addElement(mycustomer.getMiddleInitial());Totally apart from question why it doesn't work - passing parameters
to a stored procedure is not such a good idea and in fact it'is very
error prone.I meant passing parameters to an SP the way you do.
