The long datatype in Oracle is way different from the Java long. A Long in
Oracle is a
Character string of upto 2GB in length. There are specialized methods for
getting this out - See Oracle documentation of the JDBC driver

Subject: SQL question for long data type


Hi,
may be this is a simple question, but I stucked here.

I have an oracle table which has a long data type field named body.
in my java code I created a SQL and try to get that long field througn
ResultSet and print it out as a String.


String body = rs.getString("body");--- does not work.
long body = rs.getLong("body");--- does not work.
String body = (String) rs.getObject("body");-- not work.

How can I correctly doing that?

someone help me?

Thanks in advance

Helen
