OTL 4.0, Example 761 (CLOB as JSON table column)

Example 761 (CLOB as JSON table column)

This code example shows how to use OTL with a CLOB table column that has "IS JSON" constraint. It's not really that different from any other CLOB column. See the Oracle manual for more detail on how JSON columns can be selected from the underlying table.
