Retrieve a CLOB from the Oracle DBMS in Java

Here's the code:

 
 
myPreparedStatement =
myConnection.prepareStatement ("INSERT INTO AMC_NEWB_XML VALUES (?, ?,
?, ?)");
 
                   myPreparedStatement.setString(1, mySessionId);
 
     
 
                   myPreparedStatement.setInt(2, 1);
 
                             
 
                   Calendar myCal = Calendar.getInstance();
 
                   java.util.Date myUtilDate = myCal.getTime();
 
                   java.sql.Date mySqlDate = new
java.sql.Date(myUtilDate.getTime());
 
                   myPreparedStatement.setDate(3, mySqlDate);
 
                   OracleConnection myOracleConnection =
(OracleConnection)myConnection;
 
                   myPreparedStatement.setClob(4,
oracle.sql.CLOB.empty_lob());
 
                   
 
                   int myRowCount = myPreparedStatement.executeUpdate();
 
                   myConnection.commit();
 
                   System.out.println("Successful update of
"+myRowCount+" row");
 
                   
 
                   //myReader.close();
 
                   myPreparedStatement.close();
 
                   
 
                   //Now select the clob from the row just created.
 
                   String mySql = "select XML_DATA from AMC_NEWB_XML
where SESSION_ID = ? FOR UPDATE";
 
                   CallableStatement myCallableStatement =
myConnection.prepareCall(mySql);
 
                   myCallableStatement.setString(1, mySessionId);
 
                   boolean myRes = myCallableStatement.execute();
 
                   System.out.println("Retrieved the CLOB from the DB");
