### AbstractLobHandler

    public AbstractLobHandler()

Method Detail

### getBlobAsBytes

    public byte[] getBlobAsBytes(ResultSet rs,
                                 String columnName)
                          throws SQLException

  Description copied from interface: `LobHandler`
  Retrieve the given column as bytes from the given ResultSet. Might simply invoke `ResultSet.getBytes` or work with `ResultSet.getBlob`, depending on the database and driver.

  Specified by:
    `getBlobAsBytes` in interface `LobHandler`
  Parameters:
    `rs` - the ResultSet to retrieve the content from
    `columnName` - the column name to use
  Returns:
    the content as byte array, or `null` in case of SQL NULL
  Throws:
    `SQLException` - if thrown by JDBC methods
  See Also:
    `ResultSet.getBytes(int)`

### getBlobAsBinaryStream

    public InputStream getBlobAsBinaryStream(ResultSet rs,
                                             String columnName)
                                      throws SQLException

  Description copied from interface: `LobHandler`
  Retrieve the given column as binary stream from the given ResultSet. Might simply invoke `ResultSet.getBinaryStream` or work with `ResultSet.getBlob`, depending on the database and driver.

  Specified by:

    `ResultSet.getBinaryStream(int)`

### getClobAsString

    public String getClobAsString(ResultSet rs,
                                  String columnName)
                           throws SQLException

  Description copied from interface: `LobHandler`
  Retrieve the given column as String from the given ResultSet. Might simply invoke `ResultSet.getString` or work with `ResultSet.getClob`, depending on the database and driver.

    `getClobAsString` in interface `LobHandler`
  Parameters:
    `rs` - the ResultSet to retrieve the content from
    `columnName` - the column name to use
  Returns:
    the content as String, or `null` in case of SQL NULL

    `SQLException` - if thrown by JDBC methods
  See Also:
    `ResultSet.getString(int)`

### getClobAsAsciiStream

    public InputStream getClobAsAsciiStream(ResultSet rs,
                                            String columnName)
                                     throws SQLException

  Description copied from interface: `LobHandler`
  Retrieve the given column as ASCII stream from the given ResultSet. Might simply invoke `ResultSet.getAsciiStream` or work with `ResultSet.getClob`, depending on the database and driver.

  Specified by:
    `getClobAsAsciiStream` in interface `LobHandler`
  Parameters:
    `rs` - the ResultSet to retrieve the content from
    `columnName` - the column name to use
