Hibernate: Throws Clobs are not cacheable Exception when try to cache

Hi,
I am using hibernate in my application and i had implemented second level cache .My table has clob data type .When cache the clob data,
it displays "clobs are not cacheable". is there any way to cache the clob type . If not cachebale, can you explain me why its not caching.
(Second level caching is working fine with all other data type except clob or blob).

I should have to use clob or blob datatype to handle lengthy data and at the same time i need to use the second level cache .In this case ,it does not caching the clob or blob data . caching is working properly with string,interger..... data. Is there any other way to handle this
Help me to solve this..

Any immediate help would be appriciated .....
Thanks in Advance ..
