This section summarizes the new features and functionality of Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.2) that are documented in this guide, providing links into the guide for more information.
LOB support
TimesTen supports LOBs (large objects). This includes CLOBs (character LOBs), NCLOBs (national character LOBs), and BLOBs (binary LOBs).
For details of support in JDBC, refer to "Working with LOBs".
Associative array binding
TimesTen JDBC supports associative arrays, formerly known as index-by tables or PL/SQL tables, as IN, OUT, or IN OUT bind parameters to TimesTen PL/SQL. Associative arrays enable arrays of data to be passed efficiently between an application and the database.
