CONVERTTOCLOB

The CONVERTTOCLOB procedure provides the capability to convert binary data to character.

CONVERTTOCLOB(<dest_lob> IN OUT CLOB, <src_blob> BLOB,
  <amount> INTEGER, <dest_offset> IN OUT INTEGER,
  <src_offset> IN OUT INTEGER, <blob_csid> NUMBER,
  <lang_context> IN OUT INTEGER, <warning> OUT INTEGER)

Parameters

dest_lob

CLOB large object locator to which the binary data is to be converted.

src_blob

BLOB large object locator of the binary data to be converted.

amount

Number of bytes of src_blob to be converted.

dest_offset IN

Position in characters in the destination CLOB where writing of the source BLOB should begin. The first character is offset 1.

dest_offset OUT

Position in characters in the destination CLOB after the write operation completes. The first character is offset 1.

src_offset IN

Position in bytes in the source BLOB where conversion to the destination CLOB should begin. The first byte is offset 1.

src_offset OUT

Position in bytes in the source BLOB after the conversion operation completes. The first byte is offset 1.

blob_csid

Character set ID of the converted, destination CLOB.

lang_context IN

Language context for the conversion. The default value of 0 is typically used for this setting.

lang_context OUT

Language context after the conversion completes.

warning

0 if the conversion was successful, 1 if an inconvertible character was encountered.
