# return_lobs_as_strings.py
# Returns all CLOB values as strings and BLOB values as bytes. The
# performance of this technique is significantly better than fetching the LOBs
# and then reading the contents of the LOBs as it avoids round-trips to the
# database. Be aware, however, that this method requires contiguous memory so
# is not usable for very large LOBs.
#
# This script requires cx_Oracle 5.0 and higher.
