Method Detail

wrap

Blob wrap(Blob blob)
Wrap the given blob in a serializable wrapper.

Parameters:
blob - The blob to be wrapped.
Returns:
The wrapped blob which will be castable to Blob as well as WrappedBlob.

wrap

Clob wrap(Clob clob)
Wrap the given clob in a serializable wrapper.

Parameters:
clob - The clob to be wrapped.
Returns:
The wrapped clob which will be castable to Clob as well as WrappedClob.

createBlob

Blob createBlob(byte[] bytes)
Create a BLOB reference encapsulating the given byte array.

Parameters:
bytes - The byte array to wrap as a blob.
Returns:
The created blob, castable to Blob as well as BlobImplementer

createBlob

Blob createBlob(InputStream stream,
                long length)
Create a BLOB reference encapsulating the given binary stream.

Parameters:
stream - The binary stream to wrap as a blob.
length - The length of the stream.
Returns:
The created blob, castable to Blob as well as BlobImplementer

createClob

Clob createClob(String string)
Create a CLOB reference encapsulating the given String data.

Parameters:
string - The String to wrap as a clob.
Returns:
The created clob, castable to Clob as well as ClobImplementer

createClob

Clob createClob(Reader reader,
                long length)
Create a CLOB reference encapsulating the given character data.

Parameters:
reader - The character data reader.
length - The length of the reader data.
Returns:
The created clob, castable to Clob as well as ClobImplementer

createNClob

Clob createNClob(String string)
Create a NCLOB reference encapsulating the given String data.

Parameters:
string - The String to wrap as a NCLOB.
Returns:
The created NCLOB, castable as Clob as well as NClobImplementer. In JDK 1.6 environments, also castable to java.sql.NClob

createNClob

Clob createNClob(Reader reader,
                 long length)
Create a NCLOB reference encapsulating the given character data.

Parameters:
reader - The character data reader.
length - The length of the reader data.
Returns:
The created NCLOB, castable as Clob as well as NClobImplementer. In JDK 1.6 environments, also castable to java.sql.NClob
