The file resource adapter can be configured to map file names and can prevent parent path .. references. See the Admin Guide or the file-ds.xml template for more. <LI><B>TEXTTABLE Enhancements</B> - TEXTTABLE can now parse fixed width files that do not use a row delimiter and can optionally produce fixed values that haven't been trimmed. <LI><B>Temp table transactions</B> - Internal materialized views and temp table usage from a session and within procedures can take advantage of greater transaction support. - <LI><B>Buffering Improvements</B> - Added the ability to inline memory based or small lobs and added tracking of the memory held by soft references. Also switched to a concurrent LFRU algorithm that significantly reduces writes and read misses with temporary tables. Added a memory buffer to better handle file storage. - The memory buffer may be optional be configured as off-heap for better large memory performance - see the Admin Guide for more. Overhead is now tracked to help prevent memory errors when dealing with 10s of millions or more of batches/pages. Serialization and disk utilization were also improved. + <LI><B>Buffering Improvements</B> + <ul> + <li>Added the ability to inline memory based or small lobs. + <li>Added tracking of the memory held by soft references and general batch overhead.
