  Throws:
    `SQLException`

### endBlob

    public void endBlob()
                 throws SQLException

  Throws:
    `SQLException` - Thrown when error occurs while persisting Blob.

### endClob

                 throws SQLException

  Call Connection.commit().

  Throws:
    `SQLException` - Thrown when error occurs while persisting Clob.

    public String getApplicationName()

  Get the name of the current WebLogic J2EE application or return null if not running within a WebLogic J2EE context.

  Returns:

### getBlob

    public byte[] getBlob(ResultSet rs,
                          int index)
                   throws SQLException

  Get the value of a Blob column as an InputStream.

  This method will only return the value of the Blob in the current row of the ResultSet. This method does not increment the ResultSet cursor. You must use ResultSet.next() to increment the cursor before calling this method. This allows the method to be used to process multi-row ResultSets.

  Parameters:
    `rs` - The result set.
    `index` - The column index in the ResultSet.
  Returns:
    An InputStream representing the column Blob.
  Throws:
    `SQLException` - thrown on an error.

### getBlobLocator

    public OutputStream getBlobLocator(Connection con,
                                       String tableName,
                                       String blobColumnName,
                                       String whereClause)
                                throws SQLException

  Throws:
    `SQLException`

### getClob

    public String getClob(ResultSet rs,
                          int index)
                   throws SQLException

  Get the value of a CLOB column as a string.

  This method will only return the value of the CLOB in the current row of the ResultSet. This method does not increment the ResultSet cursor. You must use ResultSet.next() to increment the cursor before calling this method. This allows the method to be used to process multi-row ResultSets.

  If no JdbcHelperDelegate is specified in the console (configured via JdbcHelperMBean) then this method will return a string obtained using the default method that was used before a delegate model was implemented for this class. That method uses Clob.getCharacterStream() to construct a BufferedReader that is read in with the readLine() method.

  Parameters:
    `rs` - the result set.
    `index` - the column index in the result set.
  Returns:
    the column as a string.
  Throws:
    `SQLException` - thrown on an error.

### getClobLocator

    public Clob getClobLocator(Connection con,
                               String tableName,
                               String clobColumnName,
                               String whereClause)
                        throws SQLException

  Throws:
    `SQLException`

### getConnection

    public Connection getConnection()

  Return Connection for the current Database instance.

  Returns:
    The Connection of the current Database instance.

### getEmptyBlobInitializer

    public String getEmptyBlobInitializer()
                                   throws SQLException

  Throws:
    `SQLException`

### getEmptyClobInitializer

    public String getEmptyClobInitializer()
                                   throws SQLException

  Throws:
    `SQLException`

### getName

    public String getName()

  Gets the name of the database instance.

  Returns:
    The name of the database instance.

### readFromClob

    public String readFromClob(Clob clob)
                        throws SQLException

  Reads the contents of a Clob and returns as a String.

  Throws:
    `SQLException` - Thrown when error occurs while reading Clob.

### setClob

    public boolean setClob(PreparedStatement stmt,
                           int index,
                           Clob clob,
                           String str)
                    throws SQLException

  If there is a delegate, this method uses JdbcHelperDelegate.writeClobData() If this is done, then the PreparedStatement does not need to be used and the return value, executeRequired, is false. The CLOB should be first located with getClobLocator() If there is no delegate, then this method ignores the Clob argument and sets the value of the String into the CLOB placeholder in the PreparedStatement with setClob(PreparedStatement stmt, int index, String str) and returns executeRequired = true.

  WARNING: if using a delegate to stream data to a CLOB, then you should have used Connection.setAutoCommit(false) before calling the CLOB locator method that provided the Clob you are using in this method call. This will make the CLOB available across multiple SQL statements.

  Parameters:
    `stmt` - the prepared statement.
    `index` - the column index.
    `clob` - the CLOB locator (ignored if no delegate).
    `str` - the String to be set in the CLOB (if delegate) or in the PreparedStatement (if no delegate)
  Returns:
    boolean executeRequired. If false then a delegate was used to directly set the CLOB in the database without using the PreparedStatement. If true then no delegate was used, or the delegate set the Clob value on the statement and the PreparedStatement must be executed to update the database.
  Throws:
    `SQLException` - thrown on an error.

### setClob

    public void setClob(PreparedStatement stmt,
                        int index,
                        String str)
                 throws SQLException

  Set the value of a CLOB column with a string.

  Parameters:
    `stmt` - the prepared statement.
    `index` - the column index.
    `str` - the CLOB string.
  Throws:
    `SQLException` - thrown on an error.

### startBlob

    public void startBlob()
                   throws SQLException

  setAutoCommit( false ) on the Connection.

  Throws:
    `SQLException` - Thrown when trying to set auto-commit to false.

### startClob

    public void startClob()
                   throws SQLException

  setAutoCommit( false ) on the Connection.

  Throws:
    `SQLException` - Thrown when trying to set auto-commit to false.

### writeToClob

    public void writeToClob(Clob clob,
                            String data)
                     throws SQLException

  Writes the data from a String into a Clob.

  Throws:
    `SQLException` - Thrown when error occurs while writing to Clob.
