As the title says it all -- I need to save a large text from jsf UI into a 'clob' type column in Oracle 9i. I use Hibernate 3.3. I've referred many sites, but no help. So far tried, this and setup a user defined type like this. Also setup a clob converter. I think I'm something fundamental. Can anyone please point out to a correct article on how to set this up, end to end? (Most blog posts seem out of date or half baked info)
