我可以在CLOB列中存储二进制字符串

我有一个带CLOB列的大表。文本数据现在存储在其中。但我想写二进制字符串。在那种情况下我会遇到某种麻烦吗?

迁移到BLOB是不合适的 - 表格非常大。

一般来说,你不能这样做。特别是如果您的数据库使用UTF-8(现在是默认值),您有许多与有效字符不匹配的位值,并且在插入和选择时它们将替换为占位符(通常为¿)。

您可以做的是将二进制数据编码为Base64字符串。这是在仅支持文本(例如XML文件或SMTP邮件)的接口上传输二进制数据的一种非常常见的方法

使用此功能将二进制数据编码为文本:

FUNCTION EncodeBASE64(InBlob IN BLOB) RETURN CLOB IS

    BlobLen INTEGER := DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(InBlob);
    read_offset INTEGER := 1;
    warning INTEGER;

    amount INTEGER := 1440; -- must be a whole multiple of 3
    -- size of a whole multiple of 48 is beneficial to get NEW_LINE after each 64 characters 
    buffer RAW(1440);
    res CLOB := EMPTY_CLOB();

BEGIN

    IF InBlob IS NULL OR NVL(BlobLen, 0) = 0 THEN 
        RETURN NULL;
    ELSIF BlobLen <= 24000 THEN
        RETURN UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_VARCHAR2(UTL_ENCODE.BASE64_ENCODE(InBlob));
    ELSE
        -- UTL_ENCODE.BASE64_ENCODE is limited to 32k, process in chunks if bigger
        LOOP
            EXIT WHEN read_offset >= BlobLen;
            DBMS_LOB.READ(InBlob, amount, read_offset, buffer);
            res := res || UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_VARCHAR2(UTL_ENCODE.BASE64_ENCODE(buffer));       
            read_offset := read_offset + amount;
        END LOOP;
    END IF;
    RETURN res;

END EncodeBASE64;

这个函数转换回BLOB

FUNCTION DecodeBASE64(InBase64Char IN CLOB) RETURN BLOB IS

    res BLOB;
    clob_trim CLOB;

    dest_offset INTEGER := 1;
    src_offset INTEGER := 1;
    read_offset INTEGER := 1;
    ClobLen INTEGER := DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(InBase64Char);

    amount INTEGER := 1440; -- must be a whole multiple of 4
    buffer RAW(1440);
    stringBuffer VARCHAR2(1440);
    -- BASE64 characters are always simple ASCII. Thus you get never any Mulit-Byte character and having the same size as 'amount' is sufficient

BEGIN

    IF InBase64Char IS NULL OR NVL(ClobLen, 0) = 0 THEN 
        RETURN NULL;
    ELSIF ClobLen <= 32000 THEN
        RETURN TO_BLOB(UTL_ENCODE.BASE64_DECODE(UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_RAW(InBase64Char)));
    ELSE
        -- Remove all NEW_LINE from base64 string
        DBMS_LOB.CREATETEMPORARY(clob_trim, TRUE);
        LOOP
            EXIT WHEN read_offset > ClobLen;
            stringBuffer := REPLACE(REPLACE(DBMS_LOB.SUBSTR(InBase64Char, amount, read_offset), CHR(13), NULL), CHR(10), NULL);
            DBMS_LOB.WRITEAPPEND(clob_trim, LENGTH(stringBuffer), stringBuffer);
            read_offset := read_offset + amount;
        END LOOP;

        read_offset := 1;
        ClobLen := DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(clob_trim);
        DBMS_LOB.CREATETEMPORARY(res, TRUE);
        LOOP
            EXIT WHEN read_offset > ClobLen;
            buffer := UTL_ENCODE.BASE64_DECODE(UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_RAW(DBMS_LOB.SUBSTR(clob_trim, amount, read_offset)));
            DBMS_LOB.WRITEAPPEND(res, DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(buffer), buffer);
            read_offset := read_offset + amount;
        END LOOP;
        DBMS_LOB.FREETEMPORARY(clob_trim);
    END IF;

    RETURN res;    

END DecodeBASE64;
