LobHandler (Spring Framework API 2.1) - Spring Framework 2.1.0 API 文档英文版


The Spring Framework

org.springframework.jdbc.support.lob
Interface LobHandler

All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractLobHandler, DefaultLobHandler, OracleLobHandler

public interface LobHandler

Abstraction for handling large binary fields and large text fields in specific databases, no matter if represented as simple types or Large OBjects. Its main purpose is to isolate Oracle's peculiar handling of LOBs in OracleLobHandler; most other databases should work with DefaultLobHandler.

Provides accessor methods for BLOBs and CLOBs, and acts as factory for LobCreator instances, to be used as sessions for creating BLOBs or CLOBs. LobCreators are typically instantiated for each statement execution or for each transaction. They are not thread-safe because they might track allocated database resources to be able to free them after execution.

Most databases/drivers should be able to work with DefaultLobHandler, which simply delegates to JDBC's direct accessor methods, avoiding java.sql.Blob and java.sql.Clob completely.

Unfortunately, Oracle 9i just accepts Blob/Clob instances created via its own proprietary BLOB/CLOB API, and additionally doesn't accept large streams for PreparedStatement's corresponding setter methods. Therefore, you need to use OracleLobHandler there, which uses Oracle's BLOB/CLOB API for both all access. The Oracle 10g JDBC driver should work with DefaultLobHandler too.

Of course, you need to declare different field types for each database. In Oracle, any binary content needs to go into a BLOB, and all character content beyond 4000 bytes needs to go into a CLOB. In MySQL, there is no notion of a CLOB type but rather a LONGTEXT type that behaves like a VARCHAR. For complete portability, just use a LobHandler for fields that might typically require LOBs on some database because of their size (take Oracle's numbers as a guideline).
