对OracleRaw类型的详细解剖



SQL create table datatype_test_raw(paddr raw(8)); Table created SQL insert into datatype_test_raw(paddr) values(utl_raw.cast_to_raw('This is a raw type test!')); insert into datatype_test_raw(paddr) values(utl_raw.cast_to_raw('This is a raw

这里用到了两个函数：
utl_raw.cast_to_raw([varchar2]);--将varchar2转换为raw类型
utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2([raw]);--将raw转换为varchar2类型
这里varchar2的字符集一般是GB2312。

另外：
utl_raw包的几个其他的函数用法：
utl_raw.cast_from_number([number]);
utl_raw.cast_to_number([number]);
位操作：
utl_raw.bit_or();
utl_raw.bit_and();
utl_raw.bit_xor();

另外还有转换函数：
hextoraw(); --将对应16进制数转换为raw

当使用HEXTORAW时，会把字符串中数据当作16进制数。而使用UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_RAW时，直接把字符串中每个字符的ASCII码存放到RAW类型的字段中
