Annotation Type Lob


@Target(value={METHOD,FIELD})
@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
public @interface 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 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.
