Is maximum size of CLOBs 65534 bytes in Reports 6 and 6i ?

The help files in our Oracle Reports Builder Tool says that
"For CLOBs, Forms has a size limitation of 65534 bytes."
I assume this size limitation also applies to Oracle "_Reports_", not just Oracle "_Forms_".
However, my boss wants a specific statement to this effect and the Reference Manual did not say anything about this. Can this sise limit of 65534 bytes be documented for "_Reports_"?
I myself would consider an answer to this question by someone who knows as sufficient documentation, too.
Thanks.

Follow-up
Tests by a staff member here showed a report printing a CLOB field with about 160,000 characters. They stopped testing at that point. So the limitation in the Reports help file on the size of the field does not apply to reports.

  • What's the maximum size a varchar2  variable can hold for and NDS Stmnt?

    What's the maximum size a varchar2 variable can hold for and NDS Statement? I read that NDS is good for doing EXECUTE IMMEDIATE on statements that aren't too big. The 10g PL/SQL manual recommends using DBMS_SQL for statements that are too large, but it never gave a limit for what too large was. Does anyone know offhand?

    The limit is the same as the length of varchar2 variable within PL/SQL - that is varchar2(32767).It's not documented, but intermediate concatenation result can hold up to (64k-1) :
    Connected to:
    Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.8.0 - Production

  • Maximum size to reference text fields in report painter

    I have created a library for report painter but reference text fields were not transfered because of their size exceed 24 character long. is there some SAP procedure to extend this size at the moment we are creating the library?  Thanks in advance for support me.

    Hi Francisco
    Firstable I created a structure evaluation using SAP TC MCS7 and took the own customized table that was set up for SPL porpuses. this table contains several fields including text fields and now we would like to take them for set up several report painter but I noticed that this kind of fields are not available when I created the library using GR21 also when I tried to create the set using GS01 appeared a error "this field is bigger than 24 characters" or something like that.

  • Page size problem while creating character mode report

    Hi All,
    I've designed a report in character based layout design. The report needs to be loaded into NOTEPAD and then EXCEL sheet. I need maximum page width for this report. I kept page size of width 23" in layout design and pulled the fields so that to get maximum room. When I run the report and load it into NOTEPAD, I don't see the page width, meaning that it gives me normal 140 column size which is of course not what want.
    Please can someone provide some assistance in this scnario.
    Thanks - Zahir

    The character mode and bitmapped page sizes are different, and independant of each other.
    For character mode you need to set the width in the following places:
    1) In the appropriate layout section property palette (assuming you're on 6.0 or above).
    2) In the .prt file that you're referencing in desformat to produce the output.
    If you set the width in both these places to the size you want you should be okay.
    Alternatively, you may want to look at the delimited format to generate output for spreadsheets.
    Hope this helps,

  • Error:  Debug Component exceeds maximum size (65535 bytes)

    Hi All,
    It would seem that I have come across a limitation in the CAP file format for Java Card 2.2.1. When I run the Sun 2.2.1 converter I get the following output:
    Converting oncard package
    Java Card 2.2.1 Class File Converter, Version 1.3
    Copyright 2003 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved. Use is subject to license terms.
    error:  Debug Component exceeds maximum size (65535 bytes).
    Cap file generation failed.
    conversion completed with 1 errors and 0 warnings.This also happens with JCDK 2.2.2. Is there any way around this limitation? I can instruct the compiler to not generate some of the debug output such as variable attributes, but this makes the debugger less than useful. I could not find anything in the JCVM spec for JC2.2.1 that mentions this limitation (I could have missed it very easily if it is there). Is this a limitation that will be lifted in new versions of the standard? This is tarting to be a bit of a problem as our code base has outgrown our development tools (no more debugger). Compiling and running without debug information works fine.
    Any information on this would be much appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Shane

    For those that are interested, I found this in the Java Card VM spec. u1 and u2 are 1 and 2 byte unsigned values respectively. It would appear that it is a limitation of the CAP file format. We have managed to work around this problem (parsing the debug component of the cap file was very informative) by shortening package names, reducing exception handling, and removing classes that we could do without.
    It looks like this is removed for JC3.0 Connected Edition does not have this issue as it does not have CAP files, but JC2.2.2 and JC3.0 Classic Edition have this same issue. It would be nice if there was a converter/debugger combination that removed this limitation. If anyone knows of such a combination, I am all ears! I know for a fact that JCOP does not :(
    Cheers,
    Shane
    *6.14 Debug Component*
    This section specifies the format for the Debug Component. The Debug Component contains all the metadata necessary for debugging a package on a suitably instrumented Java Card virtual machine. It is not required for executing Java Card programs in a non-debug environment.
    The Debug Component references the Class Component (Section 6.8 "Class Component”), Method Component (Section 6.9 "Method Component”), and Static Field Component (Section 6.10 "Static Field Component”). No components reference the Debug Component.
    The Debug Component is represented by the following structure:
    {code}
    debug_component {
    u1 tag
    u2 size
    u2 string_count
    utf8_info strings_table[string_count]
    u2 package_name_index
    u2 class_count
    class_debug_info classes[class_count]
    {code}
    The items in the debug_component structure are defined as follows:
    *tag* tag item has the value COMPONENT_Debug (12).
    *size* The number of bytes in the component, excluding the tag and size items. The value of size must be greater than zero.

  • How to calcalate the maximum size occupied by a table/row

    Hi,
    I am using the below query to find the maximum size occupied by a table per a row of data.
    SQL> desc t2
    Name Null? Type
    NO NUMBER(1)
    CH VARCHAR2(10)
    SQL> select sum(data_length) from user_tab_columns where table_name='T2';
    SUM(DATA_LENGTH)
    32
    Is this correct? Does oracle takes 22 bytes of space to store a column of Number(1) per a row as it shows below !?
    1* select data_length from user_tab_columns where table_name='T2'
    SQL> /
    DATA_LENGTH
    22
    10
    Please give your comments/suggestions
    Thanks and Regards
    Srikanth

    If you are trying to do this for an existing table, you can get the actual number of bytes stored per column by:
    SELECT VSIZE(column_name)
    FROM tableSo, to get the largest row you could:
    SELECT MAX(VSIZE(col1) + VSIZE(col2) ... + VSIZE(coln))
    FROM tableIf you want to get the theoretical largest possible row size, then you can use something like:
    SELECT SUM(DECODE(data_type,'NUMBER', ROUND((data_precision/2)+.1,0) +1,
                                'DATE',   7,
                                'LONG',   2147483648,
                                'BLOB',   4000,
                                'CLOB',   4000,
                                data_length)) max_length
    FROM user_tab_columns
    WHERE table_name = 'MY_TABLE'This works because:
    For a number, Oracle stores two digits in each byte, and uses one byte for the mantissa. Note, if you are expecting negative numbers in your numeric columns then add one additional byte).
    For a date, Oracle always requires 7 bytes.
    A long is at most 2 GB in size.
    Both Blobs and Clobs will be stored out-of-line when they are larger than about 4,000 bytes.
    For other data types you specify bytes of storage when you define the column, and that is stored in data_length.
    I'm not sure at this point what sort of sizes you would get for object type columns or nested tables.

  • Is there a maximum size for photos used in a slideshow? I cannot anymore put my slideshow into a wmv

    Is there a maximum size for photos imported in a slideshow ? I cannot anymore put my slide show into a wmv file.

    About CLOB size, it's 4Go not 4000 characters - VARCHAR2 supports up to 4000 bytes. Pay attention also to unicode encoding!
    Are you using CFQUERYPARAM to insert into the CLOB fields ?
         <CFQUERYPARAM CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_CLOB" VALUE="    ">
    use the Firebug extension (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1843) in Firefox3 and do some network monitoring: let me know what you're seeing there.

  • HT1338 Hi, Is there a way to increase the maximum size of a download? I'm trying to download Adobe premiere pro (1GB) and I'm getting an error message that says my maximum download is 10 MG

    Hi, Is there a way to increase the maximum size of a download? I'm trying to download Adobe premiere pro (1GB) and I'm getting an error message that says my maximum download is 10 MG

    That's between you and your internet service provider.  By the way, you posted to the 10.3 forum.  10.3 can't run on your MacBook Pro. Don't forget the following facts:
    b= bit
    B = Byte
    8 bits in a byte
    A typical DSL connection has 1 Mbps speed or 128 kBps speed.
    At that speed
    1 minute gives you 7.5 MB
    10 minutes gives you 75 MB
    100 minutes gives you 750 MB
    A typical cable connection can be 5 times faster although some are 30 times faster.
    A typical fiber connection is 15 times faster and some are 50 times faster.
    Ask what your speed is rated at.

  • Maximum size of a data packet

    The maximum size of data packet set in configuration is 25MB.
    I want to change the size of data packet as 50 MB. I don't want to change it globally(in SPRO). I want to change it only for specific info-package.
    But in info-package system does not allow to change the packet size more than 25MB.
    Please suggest the way.

    Hi..
    MAXSIZE = Maximum size of an individual data packet in KB.
    The individual records are sent in packages of varying sizes in the data transfer to the Business In-formation Warehouse. Using these parameters you determine the maximum size of such a package and therefore how much of the main memory may be used for the creation of the data package. SAP recommends a data package size between 10 and 50 MB.
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/directforumsearch?threadid=&q=cube+size&objid=c4&daterange=all&numresults=15
    MAXLINES = Upper-limit for the number of records per data packet
    The default setting is 'Max. lines' = 100000
    The maximum main memory space requirement per data packet is around
    memory requirement = 2 * 'Max. lines' * 1000 Byte,
    meaning 200 MByte with the default setting
    3     THE FORMULA FOR CALCULATING NUMBER OF RECORDS
    The formula for calculating the number of records in a Data Packet is:
    packet size = MAXSIZE * 1000 / transfer structure size (ABAP Length)
                        but not more than MAXLINES.
    eg. if MAXLINES < than the result of the formula, then MAXLINES size is transferred into BW.
    The size of the Data Packet is the lowest of MAXSIZE * 1000 / transfer structure size (ABAP Length) or MAXLINES.

    Hi,
    Based on one of the documents from SAP,
    When you are creating dimensions for your application set you should be aware of the following maximums for any one dimension.
    u2022 The maximum number of fields in a table (a dimension = 1 table) is 1024.
    u2022 The maximum record size is 8064 bytes (a record = 1 row in a table)
    The two maximums above relate to the underlying SQL database in which BPC information and data is stored. They need further explanation as to how they relate to a BPC dimension. In BPC a field equals a property. So you can have up to 1024 properties in a dimension. One other factor that has an impact on the actual number of properties you can have in a dimension is the number of levels you have defined. SQL Server creates a set of properties for each level within the dimension. For example, you have 10 properties and three levels in your dimension, your total number of fields is 30. The second limiting factor is the size of the record. To determine record size you have to figure out the number of bytes (a byte equals a character) in each level. Since levels are repeated you only need to figure out the number of bytes in the first level and then multiply that number by the number of levels. To come up with the total number of bytes for a level you simply add up the field size for each field and multiply it by 2 (1 character = 2 bytes).
    Hope this gives you some idea.

  • Maximum size of a file that  the getResourceAsStream() can read?

    hi guys.before i post this new topic, i have search through the forum,and google. on the web .so reply are appreciated.
    1) getResourceAsStream() method, is there a way to know the maximum size of a file that the getResourceAsStream() can read?
    InputStream          is = getClass().getResourceAsStream("Dream2.gif");
                                  byte[]               byte0          = new byte[10 * 1024];
    bcos the size of my bytearray is hardcoded, if any thing is greater than that size ,my program would crash.so i would like to know if there is a way to do that
    2)if that is not available, are there any methods in j2me using any connection (http or socket),that can know the maximum size of the file that are available??????

    You won't be able to tell how big the resource is using this approach. However, since your resource is in the JAR you will be able to know the size of it before hand.
    Otherwise, use the read(byte[], int, int) method to read the resource in chunks like this:
    int count = 0;
    byte[] bytes = new byte[1024];
    while ((count = read(bytes, count, 1024)) != -1) {
      // do something like write to a ByteArrayOutputStream
    }Although redundant, using this approach you can see that you can keep a count of the number of bytes you've read and thus know the total size of the resource.

    Hello,
    CM Repository in DB Mode:
    If there is a large number of write requests in your CM usage scenario, set up the CM repository in database mode. Since all documents are stored in the database, this avoids unintentional
    external manipulation of the data.
    CM Repository in FSDB Mode:
    In this mode, the file system is predominant. If files are removed from or added to the file system, the database is updated automatically.
    If you mainly have read requests, choose a mode in which content is stored in the file system. If this is the case, make sure that access to the relevant part of the file system is denied or
    restricted to other applications.
    What is the maximum size of the document that we can upload in a CM (DB) and CM (FSDB) without compromising the performance ?
    There are the following restrictions for the databases used:
    ·  Maximum number of resources (folders, documents) in a repository instance
       FSDB: No restriction (possibly limited by file system restrictions)
       DBFS and DB: 2,147,483,648
    ·  Maximum size of an individual resource:
       FSDB: No restriction (possibly limited by file system restrictions)
       DBFS: 8 exabytes (MS SQL Server 2000), 2 GB (Oracle)
       DB: 2 GB
    Maximum length of large property values (string type):2,147,583,647 byte
    What is the impact on the performance of Knowledge Management Platform and on Portal Platform when there are large number of documents that are in sizes somewhere from 100 MB to 500 MB or more.
    The performance of the KM and Portal platform is dependent on the type of activity the user is trying to perform. That is a heavy number of retrievals of the large documents stored in the repository for
    read/write mode decreases the performance of the patform. Searching and indexing in the documents will also take a propertionate amount of time.
    For details, please refer to,
    http://help.sap.com, Goto "KM Platform" and then,

    Technically speaking the VM has a restriction according to plattform.  W2k is somewhere around 1,2G and Solaris, I believe, 4G.
    Say for instance I was on a W2k box I allotted 500+ for my J2EE Engine that would leave me with the possiblity to upload close to 600mb documents max.
