Type | Limits | Comments |
---|---|---|
BLOB | 1 byte to 2 gigabytes | An instance of type BLOB is binary data. |
CLOB | 1 byte to 2 gigabytes | An instance of type CLOB is character data. |
You can use a variable of a large-object type to read data to and write data from an equivalent kind of column in a relational database. And as described in “Loblib library,” you can use a variable of a large-object type to reference data in a file and to update that file.
