> The usage of the method DataValueDescriptor.setValue(InputStream stream, int 
> length) is unclear. The intended use seems to be to pass on the known length 
> of an input stream set from the JDBC-layer (i.e. setBinaryStream).
> There seems to be two distinct cases:
>  - the logical length of the stream is known
>  - the logical length of the stream is not known
> Using -1 when the length is not known seems to be an established pattern.
