Arguments
[in] NewLen
An Integer specifying the new length of the LOB value which must be less than
or equal to the current length.

Remarks
Either a row-level lock or object-level lock should be obtained before calling
this method.
Note: When manipulating LOBs using LOB methods, such as the Write and CopyFromFile,
note that the LOB object will not automatically be trimmed if the length of
the new data is smaller than the old data. Use the Trim (OraLob) method to shrink the LOB object to the size of the new data.
