Things to care while storing BLOB/CLOB types via VO

When you need to store a BLOB or CLOB type object into your database table via view objects (based on entity object) you need to make sure following two things should be there:

1. EO Batch mode must be turned off. Make sure there is no BatchUpdate tag is present in the EO.xml as sometimes jdeveloper fails to remove it and things looks fine on Entity object overview page.

2. Make sure there is no programmatic  or declaratively in view object tuning  section vo.setForwardOnly(true) set. BLOB and CLOB type object saving needs some special processing and need to go back to the same row in VO more than once. So setting this will fail to store these objects.

Wow, that's crazy man. They should really try to do something to fix that.
