Re: [JDBC] Binary Large Objects (LOB/BLOB) in Hibernate and JDBC: Unresolved issues

I'm still fumbling in the dark but I think I have a smell:

Does somebody know what supportsLobValueChangePropogation according to
the current JDBC specs?

There's an interesting note there:
> NOTE : I do not know the correct answer currently for databases which (1) are not part of the cruise control process or (2) do not supportsExpectedLobUsagePattern().
http://srcrr.org/java/hibernate/3.6.2/reference/org/hibernate/dialect/PostgreSQLDialect.html#supportsLobValueChangePropogation()

It's currently set to false:
https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-core/blob/master/hibernate-core/src/main/java/org/hibernate/dialect/PostgreSQLDialect.java
