OverflowableBlob (Apache Axiom)

All Superinterfaces:

Blob, WritableBlob
```
public interface OverflowableBlob
extends WritableBlob
```
Blob that accumulates data in memory and transfers it to a different type of blob if the size exceeds a certain threshold. Typically the overflow blob (i.e. the blob that is created if the memory buffer overflows) stores data in a temporary file. It is therefore mandatory to call WritableBlob.release() to discard the blob.
Instances are created with Blobs.createOverflowableBlob(int, WritableBlobFactory) or any of the other methods returning OverflowableBlob.

  - getOverflowBlob
```
WritableBlob getOverflowBlob()
```
    Get a reference to the overflow blob. The overflow blob is created only if the size of the blob exceeds the threshold. The method returns null if that's not the case.
    
    Returns:
    
    the overflow blob, or null if this blob hasn't overflown
