Answer 1

I have Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 and Java 1.6,
this code work good

 Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
       ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT utl_encode.base64_encode(ID), NAME FROM raw_table");
        while (rset.next())
        {
            Object obj = rset.getString(1);
            logger.debug(obj);
        }

Also i want to say, that Tom Kyte do not recommended use RAW Type.
