oracle 11g r2 blob类型getString报错问题

问题：
在hibernate中实体类中blob类型字段为
private String textBlob;

查询时报错:
[color=red]java.sql.SQLException: 无效的列类型: getString not implemented for class oracle.jdbc.driver.T4CBlobAccessor
at oracle.jdbc.driver.Accessor.unimpl(Accessor.java:412)[/color]

数据库版本 ：oracle 11g r2

原因： oracle 11g r2不再支持blob 的getString方法

[color=darkblue]Oracle JDBC Driver 11g Release 2 (11.2) no longer supports getString method for retrieving BLOB column values[/color]

解决方法：

[color=darkblue]Do not use "select *" and select only none-blob type columns in the select statement.
(OR)
Downgrade Oracle client to 11g R1[/color]

[size=medium][color=blue]其实只要用byte[]映射blob类型即可
private byte[] textBlob;[/color][/size]
