Has anyone else problems with Hibernate 3.0.5 and Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 thin jdbc drivers?
I have a column mapped as type="text" to a string. When an existing text is replaced with a smaller text the string contains garbage after the new shorter text. This didn't happen with 10.1.0.2.0 drivers.
Has anyone else noticed this behaviour and has a workaround (except downgrading or choosing another JDBC driver)?

Yours,
Stefan

We also have tge same problem. its because oracle requires to insert an empty_clob() before creating the clob the first time. if you do this so everything is okay if not you hav a problem that the size of the clob is corrup if it is between 667 and 970 characters long i think (i dont remember exactly)

the problem is that oracle will not fix it so hibernate should do a workaround but the dont want to ;(

we are using oracle with ejb-3 and have huge problems because of the lob-hanling.
