OCILob::setBuffering — Changes current state of buffering for the large object

Description

public OCILob::setBuffering(bool $mode): bool

Sets the buffering for the large object, depending on the value of the mode parameter.

Use of this function may provide performance improvements by buffering small reads and writes of LOBs by reducing the number of network round-trips and LOB versions. OCILob::flush() should be used to flush buffers, when you have finished working with the large object.

Parameters

mode

true for on and false for off.

Return Values

Returns true on success or false on failure. Repeated calls to this method with the same flag will return true.
