The SQL Expression masking format uses a SQL expression to generate values that are used to replace the original data values.
SQL expressions with dbms_lob and other user-defined functions can be used to mask columns of Large Object data type (LOB). To learn more, check SQL Expression in the Data Safe documentation.
Note: Objects should always be created or deserialized using the SQLExpressionFormatEntry.Builder. This model distinguishes fields that are null because they are unset from fields that are explicitly set to null. This is done in the setter methods of the SQLExpressionFormatEntry.Builder, which maintain a set of all explicitly set fields called SQLExpressionFormatEntry.Builder.__explicitlySet__. The hashCode() and equals(Object) methods are implemented to take the explicitly set fields into account. The constructor, on the other hand, does not take the explicitly set fields into account (since the constructor cannot distinguish explicit null from unset null).
