How do you get a Java serialised object into a CLOB in the first place?

Actually I am trying to retrieve it from a product database. The column describes it as "Serialized object".

Surely a CLOB is simply text? It should print to screen easily.

Hmm. Odd choice of data type. CLOBs should store character data, so its strange to have put anything else in there.

What product are you using? Do you own the data model?
