public abstract void setClob (String parameterName, Reader reader) throws SQLException

Sets the designated parameter to a Reader object. This method differs from the setCharacterStream (int, Reader) method because it informs the driver that the parameter value should be sent to the server as a CLOB. When the setCharacterStream method is used, the driver may have to do extra work to determine whether the parameter data should be send to the server as a LONGVARCHAR or a CLOB

Note: Consult your JDBC driver documentation to determine if it might be more efficient to use a version of setClob which takes a length parameter.

Parameters:
parameterName    the name of the parameter
reader    An object that contains the data to set the parameter value to.

Exceptions:
SQLException    if parameterName does not correspond to a named parameter; if a database access error occurs or this method is called on a closed CallableStatement
SQLFeatureNotSupportedException    if the JDBC driver does not support this method
