Daniel John Debrunner commented on DERBY-378:
---------------------------------------------

Looks good, couple of minor questions:

1) I see use of StringUtil.fromHexString() in the patch, but no use of 
StringUtil.toHexString() in the patch. How does the exporting work?

2) If the input to  StringUtil.fromHexString() is malformed by its length not 
being a multiple of two then null will be silently inserted. Should import 
throw an exception here?

These could be addressed after the patch is committed.


> support for  import/export  of  tables with clob/blob and the other binary 
> data types   will be good addition to derby,
