Working with Oracle and CLOBs

  • I am using Weblogic 8.1 and Oracle 9i. I simply want to insert a CLOB into an Oracle

    table

    I pretty much know how to do this with an OracleConnection BUT the Connection

    which i'm retrieving from my oracle datasource is some sort of Weblogic Wrapper

    Connection which I cannot cast to an OracleConnection

    So:

    (1) If I have setup an Oracle Datasource (using a thin driver), when I retrieve

    a connection why is this not of type OracleConnection?

    (2) If I can't get access to the underlying OracleConnection, then can I insert

    a CLOB using the Weblogic connection which i recieve?

  • Answering your Oracle question... research DBMS_LOB system package.

    LOB is such a complex subject it goes beyond what can be discussed in a post.
