[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Resolved: (HHH-2523) informix 10 BLOB type

informix 10 BLOB type --------------------- Key: HHH-2523 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2523 Project: Hibernate3 Issue Type: Bug Components: core Affects Versions: 3.2.1 Environment: Hibernate 3.2.1 Informix Dynamic Server 10.00.FC5W4 IBM Informix JDBC Driver for IBM Informix Dynamic Server 3.00.JC2 Reporter: Nick Airey Assignee: Diego Pires Plentz Priority: Minor Attachments: Informix10Dialect.java Original Estimate: 15 minutes Remaining Estimate: 15 minutes Informix 10.0 and driver 3.0 supports the BLOB type, however the hibernate dialect file does not have this type registered. Options for fixing would be to modify the existing InformixDialect, or (better) extend to a new class as per code snippet below, which is working fine for me. package additional.hibernate; import java.sql.Types; import org.hibernate.dialect.InformixDialect; /** * @author Nick Airey */ public class Informix10Dialect extends InformixDialect { public Informix10Dialect() { super(); // register support for BLOB type in informix 10 registerColumnType( Types.BLOB, "blob" ); } }
