i am trying to get an image out of a mysql database where it is stored as a blob. so far i have tried three more or less different ways, non of which seem to take me anywhere. i must be making some stupid mistake here.
try {
// create a java mysql database connection
String myDriver = "org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver";
Class.forName(myDriver);
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(mySettings.dbConnect, mySettings.dbUser, mySettings.dbPass);
PreparedStatement stmt = conn.prepareStatement("select up.userid, up.name, la.languages, up.photo, up.dob, up.edited from userprofile up join languages la on up.languages_id = la.languages_id where up.userid = ?");
stmt.setString(1, userid);
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery();
while (rs.next()) {
// version 1
InputStream photois = rs.getBinaryStream("photo");
int ch;
String str = new String();
while ((ch = photois.read()) != -1) {
// here the exception occures when i InputStream.read().
// both Exception.getMessage() and Exception.getCause()
// of the caught exception yield null
str += (char)ch;
}
byte[] bdata=str.getBytes();
byte[] img64 = Base64.encode(bdata);
String photo64 = new String(img64);
// version 2
Blob b = rs.getBlob("photo");
byte[] ba = b.getBytes(1, b.length());
// b.length() throws exception, no message, no cause
byte[] img64 = Base64.encode(ba);
String photo64 = new String(img64);
// version 3
InputStream photois = rs.getBinaryStream("photo");
byte[] buf = IOUtils.toByteArray(photois);
// this throws an exception, message and cause both null as above
String photo64 = DatatypeConverter.printBase64Binary(buf);
}
conn.close();
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Got an exception! (reading userprofile from db)");
System.err.println(e.getMessage());
System.err.println(e.getCause());
}
in all cases the console gives me this:
The Exception with null in getMessage() and getCause() is the NullPointerException.
The JavaDoc for ResultSet#getBinaryStream() states that it returns null for the column containing SQL NULL. Even though the JavaDoc for the ResultSet#getBlob() omits to mention the same, it looks to me that the test rows do not contain any data in the blob column, ie the blob is NULL in database.
