Network Client/Server should use sqlType instead of locator value to determine 
if lob was sent by locator/value

                 Key: DERBY-3377
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3377
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Network Client, Network Server
            Reporter: Kathey Marsden
            Priority: Minor


This issue came up during the fix for DERBY-3243.  Currently network server 
does not send the correct sqlType for locators. It sends DB2_SQLTYPE_BLOB or 
DB2_SQLTYPE_CLOB instead of DB2_SQLTYPE_BLOB_LOCATOR or 
DB2_SQLTYPE_CLOB_LOCATOR so the client's only way of determining whether it is 
getting a lob by value or locator is to look at the locator/extended length 
field and use that to branch its logic.  It would be cleaner moving foward to 
use the sqlType to branch this logic, but there would have to be version 
specific handling to allow it to work the old way when communicating with older 
versions.

The sqlType is sent as part of the SQLDAGRP in DRDAConnThread.writeSQLDAGRP()  
in the 
server code.
