Improve support for mapping SQL LONGVARCHAR and CLOB to Java String, SQL LONGVARBINARY and BLOB to Java byte[] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-3892 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3892 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Improvement Components: core Reporter: Gail Badner Assignee: Gail Badner Fix For: 3.2.x, 3.3.x, 3.5 Property types will be provided to enable an application to process data for a java.sql.Types.LONGVARCHAR or java.sql.Types.CLOB column as a Java String. Hibernate will internally process the data as a streams. On a read, stream data will immediately be materialized into a Java string. text - property type to map java.sql.Types.LONGVARCHAR column data as a Java String (via org.hibernate.type.TextType); (NOTE: currently, org.hibernate.type.TextType incorrectly maps "text" to java.sql.Types.CLOB; this will be fixed by this issue and updated in database dialects) materialized_clob - property type to map java.sql.Types.CLOB column data as a Java String (via org.hibernate.type.MaterializedClobType); In addition, new property types will be provided to enable an application to process data for a java.sql.Types.LONGVARBINARY or java.sql.Types.BLOB column as Java byte[]. Hibernate will internally process the data as a streams. On a read, stream data will immediately be materialized into a Java byte[]. image - property type to map java.sql.Types.LONGVARBINARY column data as byte[] (via org.hibernate.type.ImageType); materialized_blob - property type to map java.sql.Types.BLOB column data as byte[] (via org.hibernate.type.MaterializedBlobType); -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
