Writing to Clob from java

[kiranp]

Hi Friends,
I was wondering how efficient it will be to serialize XML Document(doc) as follows to store in java.sql.Clob:
(This code works fine )

//Convert XMLdoc to char array using serializer
CharArrayWriter chwriter = new CharArrayWriter() ;
XMLSerializer xs = new XMLSerializer() ;
xs.setOutputCharStream(chwriter);
xs.serialize(doc);
char[] ca =chwriter.toCharArray();

//write to Oracle clob
java.io.Writer wr = clob.getCharacterOutputStream();
wr.write(ca);

wr.flush();
wr.close();

chwriter.flush();
chwriter.close();
db_conn.commit();
db_conn.close();

Thanks
Kiran
