metadata of a BFILE

Question

Is there any way, working with BFILEs, to collect the metadata information? In my case, I have a table who's one of the columns is BFILE and points towards a location from the hard drive where I have text file(PDF, DOC, DOCX, TXT, HTML, etc.)

For example, I would need to collect the information from below screenshot.

Is it possible, not manually entering into the a properties table?

Thanks a lot.

Is it possible to collect these metadata with VB.NET? – mikcutu Feb 24 '17 at 17:26
Didn't get your question. – gregorianisch Feb 25 '17 at 12:54
I was not reading the Oracle's article about that but only the Java solution ... any way, thanks for the hint. – mikcutu Feb 25 '17 at 18:15
