Hi

In my procedure, if i am directly assigning the xml value to clob
l_clob := '<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<TESTVALUE1>....</TESTVALUE>
.
.
.
</ROW>
</ROWSET>';

I am getting error

ERROR at line 7:
ORA-06550: line 7, column 13:
PLS-00172: string literal too long

Again

if I assigned it to xmltype variable first
l_xml xmltype :=xmltype('<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<TESTVALUE1>....</TESTVALUE>
.
.
.
</ROW>
</ROWSET>');
l_clob := l_xml.getclobval();

got same error
PLS-00172: string literal too long

also size of xml is less than 2Gb.

Please help me in solving this problem.

Regards
Kukreja
