Hi,
I was experiencing problems with BLOBs. After reading the documentation of
DBD::Oracle 1.14, I found this:
>Handling LOBs
>
> When fetching LOBs, they are treated just like LONGs and are
> subject to $sth->{LongReadLen} and $sth->{LongTruncOk}. Note
> that with OCI 7 DBD::Oracle pre-allocates the whole buffer
> (LongReadLen) before constructing the returned column. With
> OCI 8 it grows the buffer to the amount needed for the
> largest LOB to be fetched so far.
When I tried, I noticed that $sth->{LongTruncOk} work as expected but
$sth->{LongReadLen} don't. Then I was looking arround and remembered that
I used this some years ago with mySQL but on that opportunity I set the
'LongReadLen' on the database handler ($dbh). I tried this and it works !
Is there an error in the documentation or I miss something?
I hope this is the correct list to post this. If not: SORRY !
