Question

I have a big XSLT which I have to insert into a Clob column. My problem is that I get an error message when I try to insert the XSLT into the clob column. It says that it exceeds the 4000 character limit. Problem is that I know that CLOBS can contain more than that.. I just cant insert more than that into it.. :/

my insert looks like this:

insert into table1 values ('','TK','0','<XSLT HERE>');

I just copy the XSLT into the <XSLT HERE>.

Surely this is possible to do in some way? any advice?

Answer 1

You can increase the character limit from 4000 to 32767 if you use PL/SQL:

declare
    v_xslt varchar2(32767) := '<XSLT HERE>';
begin
    insert into table1 values ('','TK','0',v_xslt);
end;
