dest_offset OUT

Position in bytes in the destination BLOB after the write operation completes. The first byte is offset 1.

src_offset IN

Position in characters in the source CLOB where you want to begin conversion to the destination BLOB. The first character is offset 1.

src_offset OUT

Position in characters in the source CLOB after the conversion operation completes. The first character is offset 1.
