# OCI-Lob->setBuffering

(No version information available, might be only in CVS)

OCI-Lob->setBuffering — Changes current state of buffering for the large object

### Description

OCI-Lob
bool setBuffering ( bool `$on_off` )

Sets the buffering for the large object, depending on the value of the `on_off` parameter.

Use of this function may provide performance improvements by buffering small reads and writes of LOBs by reducing the number of network round-trips and LOB versions. oci_lob_flush() should be used to flush buffers, when you have finished working with the large object.

### Parameters

`on_off`

  `TRUE` for on and `FALSE` for off.

### Return Values

Returns `TRUE` on success or `FALSE` on failure. Repeated calls to this method with the same flag will return `TRUE`.
