## Uses of Interface
java.sql.Clob

Packages that use Clob
java.sql: Provides the API for accessing and processing data stored in a data source (usually a relational database) using the JavaTM programming language.
javax.sql: Provides the API for server side data source access and processing from the JavaTM programming language.
javax.sql.rowset: Standard interfaces and base classes for JDBC `RowSet` implementations.
javax.sql.rowset.serial: Provides utility classes to allow serializable mappings between SQL types and data types in the Java programming language.

### Uses of Clob in java.sql

Subinterfaces of Clob in java.sql
`interface` `NClob` The mapping in the Java™ programming language for the SQL `NCLOB` type.

Methods in java.sql that return Clob
`Clob` Connection.`createClob()` Constructs an object that implements the `Clob` interface.
`Clob` ResultSet.`getClob(int columnIndex)` Retrieves the value of the designated column in the current row of this `ResultSet` object as a `Clob` object in the Java programming language.
`Clob` CallableStatement.`getClob(int parameterIndex)` Retrieves the value of the designated JDBC `CLOB` parameter as a `java.sql.Clob` object in the Java programming language.
`Clob` ResultSet.`getClob(String columnLabel)` Retrieves the value of the designated column in the current row of this `ResultSet` object as a `Clob` object in the Java programming language.
`Clob` CallableStatement.`getClob(String parameterName)` Retrieves the value of a JDBC `CLOB` parameter as a `java.sql.Clob` object in the Java programming language.
`Clob` SQLInput.`readClob()` Reads an SQL `CLOB` value from the stream and returns it as a `Clob` object in the Java programming language.

Methods in java.sql with parameters of type Clob
`long` Clob.`position(Clob searchstr, long start)` Retrieves the character position at which the specified `Clob` object `searchstr` appears in this `Clob` object.
`void` PreparedStatement.`setClob(int parameterIndex, Clob x)` Sets the designated parameter to the given `java.sql.Clob` object.
`void` CallableStatement.`setClob(String parameterName, Clob x)` Sets the designated parameter to the given `java.sql.Clob` object.
`void` ResultSet.`updateClob(int columnIndex, Clob x)` Updates the designated column with a `java.sql.Clob` value.
`void` ResultSet.`updateClob(String columnLabel, Clob x)` Updates the designated column with a `java.sql.Clob` value.
`void` SQLOutput.`writeClob(Clob x)` Writes an SQL `CLOB` value to the stream.

### Uses of Clob in javax.sql

Methods in javax.sql with parameters of type Clob
`void` RowSet.`setClob(int i, Clob x)` Sets the designated parameter in this `RowSet` object's command with the given `Clob` value.
`void` RowSet.`setClob(String parameterName, Clob x)` Sets the designated parameter to the given `java.sql.Clob` object.

### Uses of Clob in javax.sql.rowset

Methods in javax.sql.rowset with parameters of type Clob
`void` BaseRowSet.`setClob(int parameterIndex, Clob x)` Sets the designated parameter to the given `Clob` object in the Java programming language.
`void` BaseRowSet.`setClob(String parameterName, Clob x)` Sets the designated parameter to the given `java.sql.Clob` object.

### Uses of Clob in javax.sql.rowset.serial

Classes in javax.sql.rowset.serial that implement Clob
`class` `SerialClob` A serialized mapping in the Java programming language of an SQL `CLOB` value.

Methods in javax.sql.rowset.serial that return Clob
`Clob` SQLInputImpl.`readClob()` Retrieves the `CLOB` value at the head of this `SQLInputImpl` object as a `Clob` object in the Java programming language.

Methods in javax.sql.rowset.serial with parameters of type Clob
`long` SerialClob.`position(Clob searchStr, long start)` Returns the position in this `SerialClob` object where the given `Clob` signature begins, starting the search at the specified position.
`void` SQLOutputImpl.`writeClob(Clob x)` Writes a `Clob` object in the Java programming language to this `SQLOutputImpl` object.

Constructors in javax.sql.rowset.serial with parameters of type Clob
Constructor and Description
`SerialClob(Clob clob)` Constructs a `SerialClob` object that is a serialized version of the given `Clob` object.
