By chunked do you mean reading in pieces? Isn't this the whole point of having a resource/object for LOBs? I know that the oci-lob extension supports reading of pieces of a LOB at a time. While the user should normally be reading any LOBs that are fetched, it is possible that the LOB data will be large and therefore not lend itself to buffering as it could easily fill memory. Unless the oci8 extension is completely broken with regard to LOB handling, and I doubt that it is, we should do our best to give the user a real resource to read from.
Yes it supports it in theory. But there were bugs last time I tried it on windows so I have disabled it internally, though the API makes it look like its supported. regards, Lukas
