I'm not aware of the set/getObject methods in JDBC, where are they?
You'll most likely store them as BLOBs in the database and have to read and write the objects as binary streams. You'll probably need to use the java.io.ObjectInputStream and ObjectOutputStream to move them around.
Can we get an idea on WHY you are storing classes in the database, sounds like a strange exercise...
