Lob

public class Lob
Specifies that a persistent property or field should be persisted as a large object to a database-supported large object type. The Lob annotation may be used in conjunction with the {@link Basic} annotation. A Lob may be either a binary or character type.

The Lob type is inferred from the type of the persistent field or property, and except for string and character-based types defaults to Blob.


Example:

@Lob @Basic(fetch=LAZY)
@Column(name="REPORT")
protected String report;
