We are able to store and retrieve data in blobs in Oracle 9i using the storeContent implementation in CommonRDBMSAdapter which uses JDBC API and does not rely on specific oracle API.
So I am trying to understand why is it necessary to use the oracle extensions? What problems were observed that lead to this conclusion?

The use of Oracle extensions to the Blob object is necessary for versions previous to 10g (with 10g these extensions are deprecated in favour of jdbc 3.0 api). > > Well, I could upload the jdbc driver, but I'm pretty sure there would be > > legal complications. Yes, Oracle Distribution license isn't compatible with Apache license... ;) -- Davide Savazzi --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ************************************************************************ If you have received this e-mail in error, please delete it and notify the sender as soon as possible.
