Oracle JDBC and Oracle CHAR data type

Question

I have a tricky issue with the Oracle JDBC driver\'s handling of CHAR data types. Let\'s take this simple table:

Answer 1

I have nice fix for this. You have to add one property while getting connection from database.

NLS_LANG=american_america.AL32UTF8

or in Java connection you can use below code:

java.util.Properties info = new java.util.Properties();
info.put ("user", user);
info.put ("password",password);
info.put("fixedString","TRUE");
info.put("NLS_LANG","american_america.AL32UTF8");
info.put("SetBigStringTryClob","TRUE");
String url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@"+serverName;
log.debug("url="+url);
log.debug("info="+info);
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver");
conn  = DriverManager.getConnection(url,info);
