Hi,
I tried to convert binary blob field to varchar column in select statement but
It did not work.
Here is what I did:
1. I created a domain
CREATE DOMAIN D_BIGVARCHAR AS
VARCHAR(32000) CHARACTER SET OCTETS
COLLATE OCTETS;
Then when I use this query
select cast(JOB_INFO as D_BIGVARCHAR) job_string
from JOB_TASKS
I expect to receive the value of blob field as varchar in the result set.
In my java code I use:
rs.getBytes("job_string") to get varchar as byte array.
But for some reason where I have non-char values in the byte array I get
(dec)46 instead of actual value.
My Data source in the java is defined with NONE Encoding.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance
