Hi,
I' am developing a new Db schema with Oracle 8.0.5 and I have a doubt to decide the type of one text field.

The problem is that this field will be contain a free text ( I don't know th size) , and I'm not sure to use a Clob or a long type.

I will use java to retrieve the value from this field, I remember that there was some problem with the lobs object into the jdbc driver of release 8.0.5.

Can I use the new features of java1.2.2 for the jdbc also with the old version of Oracle and not with 8i ?
Thank for the help!!! Received on Sat Sep 30 2000 - 11:33:34 CEST
