ORA-01460 for shuttle result length >4000

Alex Hoefling-OracleOct 18 2018 — edited Oct 22 2018

Using APEX 18 I have a shuttle item (P19_HOSTS), which I am using as variable for my (line) chart query:

select ITEM, ACTION, TARGETĀ 

from ITEMS_VIEW

where instr(':'||:P19_HOSTS||':',':'||TARGET||':') > 0

The "hosts" list in the shuttle is generated dynamically. The length of P19_HOSTS could be up to 10000 chars (when all hosts are selected).

The problem is that when P19_HOSTS is greater than 4000 chars, I get error:

Ajax call returned server error ORA-01460: unimplemented or unreasonable conversion requested for

Searching thru documentation and blogs I find references to earlier Bugs (5872943), but these should all be fixed.

Questions:

Is 4000 chars the limit for the result length of an APEX shuttle item ? Can this be changed ?

How can I workaround this ?

Thanks for any pointers.
