Hi --
I've added these as PRs 59070 and 59072 ... thanks in advance
to anyone who can take a quick look. Cheers,
Chris.
> It's been a very long time since I looked at the Oracle DB support
> in APR ... my apologies!
>
> I bumped into a bug recently (actually, in APR-util 1.5.x but it's
> also in APR trunk) where CLOBs are not readable due to a failed
> check on the val->type in dbd_oracle_get_entry() in dbd/apr_dbd_oracle.c.
>
> In the surrounding switch statement, val->type has been determined to
> be one of the Oracle SQLT_BLOB or SQLT_CLOB values. Then, to handle
> the CLOB case specifically, val->type is tested again but now it is
> incorrectly checked against APR_DBD_TYPE_CLOB instead of SQLT_CLOB.
>
> That always fails, so CLOBs are treated as BLOBs, insufficient
> space may be allocated, and then trouble ensues.
>
> The patch below has been running in production for a long time;
> I just never realized I hadn't reported it to the APR list. Again,
> my apologies!
>
>
> I also added a patch for the test/dbd.c which enables it to
> succeed on Oracle (at least, on our versions of Oracle). The trailing
> semicolons in the individual SQL INSERTs otherwise cause Oracle to
> issue an ORA-00911 "invalid character" error.

> I hope these are both relatively uncontroversial! Thanks very much,
