Junc Characters stored in Oracle DB by Entity Bean

[Nilesh Soni]

To All,

I have created one CMP Bean and in that CMP bean, I have one method declaration as follows (which will be implemented by the container).

public abstract void setReturnName(String returnName);

I am calling this method from another method (which is declared and defined in the same CMP) like this.

public boolean changeData(ReturnTypeTO returnType)
{
setReturnName("Return Type");
return true;
}

Now the problem is that in the database, if i look at the value, there are some junc characters are stored (and that is also starting 3 characters only)
I have perfectly defined the field name and everything in DTD.

I am using Oracle 8.1.7.0.0
and we are using classes12.zip for database drivers.


Can somebody throw light in this case...

Thanx...

What kind of field are the junk characters in. If it is a CLOB, that could be a problem. I have recently been debugging a problem with my code working on Oracle 9 and it was because I was using a CLOB field. That's just a guess on my part. I really have no other idea.
