Bug #675	A call to ResultSet.getXXX while on insert row fails

Description:
When a Connector/J UpdatableResultSet is on the insert row (moveToInsertRow())and some calls to updateXXX() have been made, subsequent calls to getXXX() return the field values of the 'current row' (that is, the row that was selected just before the call to moveToInsertRow)

The expected getXXX behavior at this time would be to return the insert row's values.

How to repeat:
ResultSet set = conn.createStatement().execute("some select sql");

set.first();

System.out.println("'name' is " + set.getString("name"));
// *** Will output the first record's 'name' field's value.

set.moveToInsertRow();
set.updateString("name", "my new name");

System.out.println("'name' is " + set.getString("name"));
// *** Will output exactly the same thing as the first System.out

Suggested fix:
Maybe 'thisRow' (in ResultSet) should point to the insert row when calling moveToInsertRow() ?

Please refer to :

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/jdbc/spec2/jdbc2.1.frame5.html

"The ResultSet.moveToInsertRow() method is used to position the result set's cursor on the insert row. The ResultSet.updateXXX() and ResultSet.getXXX() methods are used to update and retrieve individual column values from the insert row. The contents of the insert row is undefined immediately after calling ResultSet.moveToInsertRow() . In other words, the value returned by calling a ResultSet.getXXX() method is undefined after moveToInsertRow() is called until the value is set by calling ResultSet.updateXXX()."
