[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1341?page=comments#action_12414483 ]
Anurag Shekhar commented on DERBY-1341: --------------------------------------- I was wrong about life time of lob. It is supposed to restricted only for the transaction (jdbc 3.0 section 16.3.1) Yes its the model where DatabaseMetaData.locatorsUpdateCopy() will return true (updates made on a copy) I am following the thread and plan to be consistant with client driver's behaviour unless its concluded other wise in that thread. Initially memory may be sufficient to hold the array user sets in. But user may call setBytes multiple times resulting in a huge array which may be stored in memory. Same is true when user is writing in the output stream. > LOB setBytes method(s) are currently no supported, but part of the Java 1.4 > JDBC interface > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: DERBY-1341 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1341 > Project: Derby > Type: Bug > Components: JDBC > Versions: 10.0.2.0, 10.0.2.1, 10.0.2.2, 10.1.1.0, 10.2.0.0, 10.1.2.0, > 10.1.1.1, 10.1.1.2, 10.1.2.1, 10.1.3.0, 10.1.2.2, 10.1.2.3, 10.3.0.0, > 10.1.2.4, 10.1.2.5 > Environment: Windows 2000 > Reporter: Keith McFarlane > Assignee: Anurag Shekhar > > JDBC LOB . getBtypes methods are not implemented in any Derby version to > date: there is a "place-holder" method that throws a SQLException reporting > that the methods are not implemented. > It would be excellent to have any efficient Derby implementation of the > getBytes LOB methods that provide "random-access" to the binary // character > content of database large objects.
