Is there a way to define type aliases for internal types?

I'd like to define aliases for CLOB and would like to know if/how this is possible. I tried this: create type "array" external name "str"; create table atest(it array); insert into atest values('test'); Yielding the following error: TypeException:user.s2_27[3]:'calc.array' undefined in: _5:any := calc.array(_4:str) program contains errors So, that was probably not the right way to do it ...
