What is current status of LOBs with Oracle?
Hello,
I remember having seen previously conversation on this list concerning
getting OJB to be able to work with LOBs in Oracle. I remember there
being some philosophical debate on how best to attack this problem, and
I remember that some people had patched their own code to get this to
work, but there hadn't been any decision as to what to do to the current
codebase.
My apologies if this has already been addressed and I just lost it in
the volume of email, but I'm wondering now, has this been resolved? Or
are LOBs under Oracle still broken? Does anybody have a patch they
would share that works for OJB 0.9.9?
At any rate, I've hit a point where the ability to do LOBs in Oracle is
a basic requirement. If I can't do it with OJB then I'm going to have
to do it with something else.

We´re currently at the same position with our project. We´re using the
cvs 1.0 version though.
I´ve prosponed the introduction of BLOB part of our mapping file.
I need however this to be working on oracle 8.1.7 and 9i by the end of
this weekend.
So if the solution is as simple as a patch I´ll make it available to
this list.
I know from experience though, making it work for oracle might very well
break for other dbmses.
Of course there is the "OraclePlatformImpl.java" already in place in
OJB, where there is an attempt to handle issues with oracle, including
BLOB´s varbinary and such. I had other problems that are now fixed, so I
will know during the weekend if this really is an issue or not for my
project.

Of course LOB´s should be available with OJB. I´m taking the fact the
code in OraclePlatformImpl is not deprecated and tries to handle this as
a proof of the OJB project´s intention to make this work. As I said
earlier, if I reach a useful conclusion I´ll let the list know

You will find a patch in the archives that works with Oracle OCI driver.
The patch does not appear to work for lobs > 4000 with the Oracle thin
driver.
