[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-2646) Informix 10 dialect with BLOB/CLOB support

Informix 10 dialect with BLOB/CLOB support ------------------------------------------ Key: HHH-2646 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2646 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Improvement Components: core Affects Versions: 3.2.4.sp1 Environment: Informix 10 Reporter: Thomas Much Assignee: Diego Plentz Priority: Minor Attachments: Informix10Dialect.java We discovered that Informix 10 works well with mapping types "blob" and "clob" if we use our own dialect that's simply derived from the existing Informix dialect by adding the two missing types: public class Informix10Dialect extends InformixDialect { public Informix10Dialect() { super(); registerColumnType( Types.BLOB, "blob" ); registerColumnType( Types.CLOB, "clob" ); } } We suggest adding this new dialect to Hibernate Core. (This is similar to issue HHH-2523, but here "clob" is mapped, too.)
