Hello all,
I'm trying to make an update to one field of my object (or realistically, a whole bunch of objects of one type). When i make an update to the field and commit the transaction, my jdbc driver log tells me that there is a preparedstatement compiled that executes and update affecting all fields of the objects.

What is the technique, if any, to perform an efficient update of a single field for a large number of instances of the same class?

thank you.
