Sorry, currently this is not possible.

I setup a test to reproduce your issue. After some time and a hack (add 
7 lines of code in 3 classes) I was able to execute arbitrary 
sql-statements using a report query (based on latest version from SVN 
OJB_1_0_RELEASE branch):

TEST
----

String sql = "select * from Artikel as A1 where A1.Artikelname = 
'testReportQueryBySql_1174691153125'";

Query query = QueryFactory.newQuery(null, sql);
Iterator it = broker.getReportQueryIteratorByQuery(query);
while(it.hasNext())
{
     Object o =  it.next();
     System.out.println("result: " + ArrayUtils.toString(o));
}

OUTPUT
------

result: 
{200017,testReportQueryBySql_1174691153125,0,<null>,<null>,0.0,0,0,0,0}
result: 
{200018,testReportQueryBySql_1174691153125,0,<null>,<null>,0.0,0,0,0,0}

OJB use the ResultSetMetadata of the ResultSet to determine the correct 
java field type. So this solution requires a proper jdbc-driver 
implementation.

Would this hack satisfy you?

regards,
Armin
