RE: Re:Blob Type

I use a byte arrays to deal with PDF and images that are defined and longblobs in mysql
 
public void setContent(String fieldName, byte[] val) {
    this.setBytes(SFieldBytes, val);
}

 

public byte[] getContent() {
     return getBytes(SFieldBytes); 
}


 
//To save the content to a file i use something like this
 
public void saveAsFile(String filePath) {

try {
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(filePath);
out.write(this.getContent());
out.close();
return;
} catch (Exception x) {
throw new RuntimeException("cant save doc to file", x);
}
}


 
 
hope this helps

Subject: [SimpleORM] Re:Blob Type

  



Hello all,

I was wondering how best to work with images and/or documents that I want to save in a db based on the SFieldBlob data type. Once I have retrieved the file (eg image) from a web page, should I immiately pass it as a blob type such as "setBlob(SrecordMeta.BlobField, getUploadFile) or do I have to write some code to convert it into some kind of byte array and then pass it to the blob type? Kindly assist.

Regards.

Abel
