EclipseLink workbench: where is BLOB column type? [message #898368]

I just migrate toplink project 9.0.4 to EclipseLink 2.4.0
There are warnings on some tables

TableNode[0180DB6A] (MWTable[0100607D] (JOB)) 0702 A size is required for the column "JOB.TEMPLATE".

In DB this column has type BLOB (Oracle 11). In workbench after migrating it has column type VARCHAR2 with size = 0, when in toplink workbench 9.0.4 it was BLOB.

What should I use instead of BLOB for this column?

This looks like a problem occured converting the table metadata in the workbench project. It should only be a problem if you need to use the workbench to recreate the tables, otherwise this data is not used.

If needed, you can correct it by reading in the tables from the database, or by manually fixing the type to what you want to use or are using in the database.
