All Implemented Interfaces:

Clob

public class FBClob
extends Object
implements Clob

The mapping in the JavaTM programming language for the SQL CLOB type. An SQL CLOB is a built-in type that stores a Character Large Object as a column value in a row of a database table. CLOBS are not currently supported by the Jaybird driver. The Clob interface provides methods for getting the length of an SQL CLOB (Character Large Object) value, for materializing a CLOB value on the client, and for searching for a substring or CLOB object within a CLOB value. Methods in the interfaces ResultSet, CallableStatement, and PreparedStatement, such as getClob and setClob allow a programmer to access an SQL CLOB value. In addition, this interface has methods for updating a CLOB value.

truncate

public void truncate(long param1)
              throws SQLException

This operation is not currently supported Truncate this Clob to a given length.

Specified by:

truncate in interface Clob

Parameters:

param1 - The length to truncate this Clob to

position

public long position(String searchstr,
                     long start)
              throws SQLException

Specified by:

position in interface Clob

Parameters:

searchstr - the substring for which to search

start - the position at which to begin searching; the first position is 1

Returns:

the position at which the substring appears, else -1; the first position is 1

Specified by:

position in interface Clob

Parameters:

searchstr - the Clob object for which to search

start - the position at which to begin searching; the first position is 1
