ClobType.setToXMLNode: could not read XML from Clob --------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-2089 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2089 Project: Hibernate3 Type: Patch Components: core Versions: 3.2.0.cr4 Environment: Hib 3.2.0cr4, database: any Reporter: Pietro Iglio I get "org.hibernate.HibernateException: could not read XML from Clob" trying to retrieve a CLOB column as XML. I think I have found the reason of the bug in org.hibernate.type.ClobType: public void setToXMLNode(Node node, Object value, SessionFactoryImplementor factory) { ... node.setText( clob.getSubString(0, len) ); ... } According to the JDBC spec, the first character of Clob is at 1 position, so the correct line should be node.setText( clob.getSubString(1, len) ); -- 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
