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

Sets the designated parameter to a Reader object. The reader must contain the number of characters specified by length otherwise a SQLException will be generated when the CallableStatement is executed. This method differs from the setCharacterStream (int, Reader, int) 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

Parameters:
parameterName    the name of the parameter to be set
reader    An object that contains the data to set the parameter value to.
length    the number of characters in the parameter data.

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