FileUpload into Database

[JP...@farcomm.com]

I am interested in integrating some JSF controls into a webapp, 
specifically the FileUpload as the one I was using has a license 
restriction.

Does anyone have any sample code for uploading an image into a database 
using the FileUpload control and then displaying same from there?  The 
sample given in myfaces-examples.war seems incomplete (the image is being 
saved in memory only?) and I cannot find any documentation.  Should I 
download the MyFaces binaries for docs?

Thanks,

John Parker

For database operations you have to know how to work with BLOBS. 
The operations are very simple....


....
uploadedFile file;
BLOB blob;
InputStream in = file.getInputStream();
OutputStream os = blob.getBinaryStream();
.......

and you copy from in to out.

Also be carefull of database limitation issuses. Every database I worked
width has limitations but also workarounds for that.

This is all for database,
