JBEDSP JDBC driver: clearbatch() gives an Null Pointer Exception

Issue

• I've been working on getting a product by Tibco, called Spotfire, connecting to JBEDSP using the JDBC driver in 5.1.
• For some reason it calls clearBatch() as soon as it initializes the driver class. In org.teiid.jdbc.StatementImpl, as there have been no batched updates the batchedUpdates member hasn't been instantiated so clearBatch() throws a NullPointerException.
