GetBlob() method not recognized even after importing oracle.sql.blob

Question

I have a .Java file in an Application where the code which like this

blob = ((OracleResultSet) rs).getBLOB("Document");

I have imported oracle.sql.blob. import Oracle.sql.BLOB

But even after that I am having complier error and intellisense suggesting me to Create method 'getBLOB(string)' in type OracleResultSet

Is this a problem because of JRE system library? I checked it too... the Jar file is properly added.

Just another point this problem is happening after a fresh installation of Eclipse. Do I need to add any additional JAR or perform some configuration?

Answer 1

the method signature should be

Blob getBlob(String columnLabel) throws SQLException

so, try writing the last three letters in lower case:

blob = ((OracleResultSet) rs).getBlob("Document");

Answer 2

I have upgraded the JDK version of my machine to JDK 7 and it did the trick. The JRE system library files were not all available with the previous version. No this sort of issues anymore.
