Stored Proc output being truncated with latest ojdbc14 and classes12.jar

Question

Hello,
I downloaded the latest ojdbc14.jar from Oracle website and used it with my Java program. I noticed a peculiar behavior. If my stored proc is returning a VARCHAR with large number of characters, the output is being truncated. This worked fine with the older ojdbc14.jar (and the older classes12.jar). It does not work properly with the new ojdbc14 and classes12.jar. Is there something that I am missing here?
My Oracle Server version is - Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0.
Below is the sample stored proc and the Java file to execute the same.
Am I missing something here?
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TestOracleDriver (returnVal OUT VARCHAR2) IS
BEGIN
returnVal := '';
FOR tmpVar in 1..2000
Loop
          returnVal := returnVal || to_char(tmpVar) || ',';          
END LOOP;
END;
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.util.Hashtable;
import oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleTypes;
public class OracleDriverTest
     public static void main(String argv[]) throws Exception
          Connection c = null;
          try
               Driver dr = new oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver();
               Properties props = new Properties();
               props.put("user", "scott");
               props.put("password", "tiger");
               c = dr.connect("jdbc:oracle:thin:@SERVER_NAME:PORT:SID", props);
               System.out.println("GOT A PLAIN CON" );
               System.out.println("The driver is " + c.getMetaData().getDriverVersion() );
               System.out.println("The DBMS is " + c.getMetaData().getDatabaseProductVersion() );
               execute(c);
          catch (Exception e)
          e.printStackTrace();
          finally { try {c.close();} catch (Exception ign){} }
     private static String execute(Connection connection )
               String procName = "TestOracleDriver";
               CallableStatement cstmt=null;
               ResultSet rs = null;
               String returnedData = null;
               try
                    cstmt = connection.prepareCall("{call " + procName+" (?)}");
                    cstmt.registerOutParameter(1,OracleTypes.VARCHAR);
                    cstmt.execute();
                    returnedData = cstmt.getString(1);
                    System.out.println("ProcTest ::execute --> Returned data is \n"+ returnedData);
                    return returnedData;
          catch (Exception e) {
               System.out.println("ProcTest ::execute -->Error while executing "+procName);
               e.printStackTrace();
               return null;
          finally
               try
                    connection.close();
               catch (Exception e1)
                    System.out.println("ProcTest ::execute -->Error while closing connection ");
                         e1.printStackTrace();
               }//end of catch
     }//end of finally
}//End of execute method

Hari,
If you think it is a bug, you can report it to Oracle Support via the MetaLink Web site.
