Thanks for your reply!
I wrote such a transformer and now it seems to work perfectly. Here's the
code for the transformer if anyone encounters the same problem, or if anyone
want to improve it:
import org.apache.solr.handler.dataimport.*;
import oracle.sql.CLOB;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class ClobTransformer extends Transformer
{
public Map<String, Object> transformRow(Map<String, Object> row, Context
context)
{
List<Map<String, String>> fields = context.getAllEntityFields();
for (Map<String, String> field : fields)
{
String toString = field.get("toString");
if ("true".equals(toString))
{
String columnName = field.get("column");
CLOB clob = (CLOB)row.get(columnName);
if (clob != null)
{
StringBuffer strOut = new StringBuffer();
String app;
try {
BufferedReader br = new
BufferedReader(clob.getCharacterStream());
while ((app=br.readLine())!=null)
strOut.append(app);
} catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
row.put(columnName, strOut.toString());
}
}
}
return row;
}
}
