It is the expected behaviour if the value of the LONG-column is given as
String_literal like
Insert tab VALUES ('test', TO_DATE(...) )
If you will use JDBC/ODBC or the like and use parameter for the LONG-value
(as usually needed as usually you will not include looooooong LONG-values
by hand) like
insert tab values (:longparam, TO_DATE (...) )
this will work.
