Class MonetClob

java.lang.Object
nl.cwi.monetdb.jdbc.MonetClob
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<MonetClob>, Clob

public final class MonetClob
extends Object
implements Clob, Serializable, Comparable<MonetClob>
The MonetClob class implements the Clob interface. Because MonetDB/SQL currently has no support for streams, this class is a shallow wrapper of a StringBuilder. It is more or less supplied to enable an application that depends on it to run. It may be obvious that it is a real resource expensive workaround that contradicts the sole reason for a Clob: avoidance of huge resource consumption. Use of this class is highly discouraged.

    • free

      public void free()
      This method frees the Clob object and releases the resources the resources that it holds. The object is invalid once the free method is called. After free has been called, any attempt to invoke a method other than free will result in a SQLException being thrown. If free is called multiple times, the subsequent calls to free are treated as a no-op.
