Subject: ROWID field for LOBs
Posted: Wed Oct 05, 2016 11:49 am (GMT 5.5)
Hi All,
I was reading about LOBs here
In page 42, whey they talk about ROWID, they say
"The generated ROWID is externalized as a 44 byte value (40 bytes of data plus length fields), but stored as VARCHAR (17)"
I dint understand the part where 44byte value is stored in VARCHAR (17). VARCHAR (17) can store a maximum value of 17 bytes?
Please clarify
