OTL 4.0, Example 315 (Insert/Update/Select with Oracle 8i CLOB in stream mode and otl_stream_read_iterator)

Example 315 (Insert/Update/Select with Oracle 8i CLOB in stream mode and otl_read_stream_iterator)

This example demonstrates INSERT, UPDATE, and SELECT statements with the Oracle 8i/9i/10g CLOB datatype in the stream mode together with the otl_stream_read_iterator.
