Stein,
How exactly are you handling the LOB? What Java type is the LOB in
your code? When I wrote an app a few years ago that used CLOBs I mapped
them to a java.sql.Clob and in the code I used the java.io.File and the
java.io.FileReader because I pulled files right off of the filesystem. If
my memory serves me, I believe that I did this with both text files
and gifs.
Please post the relevant portions of the object mapping and of your code.
