OTL 4.0, Example 208 (otl_lob_stream and  SELECT INTO FOR UPDATE, Oracle)

Example 208 (otl_lob_stream and SELECT INTO FOR UPDATE, Oracle)

This example demonstrates INSERT, SELECT INTO FOR UPDATE, and SELECT statements with the Oracle 8,8i,9i CLOB datatype in the stream mode. The example is similar to example 56, and provided only as part of the package of examples to demonstrate the extended otl_lob_stream class.
