Dear all,
I was stored the gif/jpg image into the MySQL Database as a buffered image.
But when i was retrive the image from database and display in jsp page, it will not working well.
The image is not displaying.
The content get from the database, but it's type is mismatch i think.
Here are the code i was using.

FOR UPLOADING IMAGE

File f=null;
while(files.hasMoreElements())
{
String name=(String)files.nextElement();
filename=multi.getFilesystemName(name);
String type=multi.getContentType(name);
f=multi.getFile(name);
System.out.println("The File is "+f);
}
Connection con=null;
String userName="root";
String password = "veradis";
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/sample",userName,password);
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
InputStream is = new FileInputStream(f);
byte b[]=new byte[is.available()];
is.read(b);
int flag=0;
try
{
String sql = "INSERT into tbl_image(image) values('" + b + "')";
System.out.println(sql);
stmt.execute(sql);
flag=1;
}
catch(Exception e)
{
System.out.println("SQL Exception : " + e);
}

stmt.close();

If i can run this code the image column was displayed as empty.
If anyone can know how to solve this problem, please help me.

What i did is: i have created a folder inside the same project, named it images, then i give a user an option to upload the image, when you upload the image, it takes the image and save it in the folder and take the image(file) name and store it into a database eg: my project name is support, inside support folder i have image folder which is @ c drive and the image name is lordkwena.gif, so in the in the database i am gonna have c:\support\image\lordkwena.gif. so after a user has logged in it collects the information from the database including the image. i have created a method so that i will access it when ever i want. here is the method:

 public void setImageI(String imageIc)
{

    image=imageIc;
}
public String getImageI()
{
    return image;
}

Hope you know what is happening here.

 ResultSet rs = state.executeQuery(Query); 
 if(rs.next())
               {

  main.setName(rs.getString(4)); 
//plz note that main is: static className main = null; meaning i have decleared a static className main to create an instance for my class
}

so rs.getString(4) this will collect the infornmation form the database.
cos i was using java, i displayed the image on a label: lblImage.setIcon(new ImageIcon(imagename));

//declaring imagename
private String imagename=""; 
//Initialising imagename
 imagename=main.getImageI();

Hope this helps, let me know if you have a problem.

Hai lordwena, Thanks for your reply.
I have already done this type of functionality, like store the images in image folder under the project root folder(ex: d:/Tomcat 5.0/webapps/<projectfolder>/<imagefolder>), and the image name was stored into the database.

But i need the concept of Store the image content into the Database usiong BLOB Datatype, and whenever we need the image, we will get the image content from the database and display it in jsp page.

This type of functionality i need to use in my project, So please help me with this. In my project i am using MYSQL Database

Anyway Thanks alot for your reply.

You are storing Images. Use BufferedInput/OutputStream. Also store the content type in a db column. And retrieve the same for setting the ContentType of jsp page. Do not do this
OutputStream outImej = new FileOutputStream("C:/Documents and Settings/Tamil/Desktop/photo/img"+i+".JPG");

Rather write the steam as byte array.

String query = "select image from images where id =1";
Statement st = con.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery(query);
rs.next();


byte[] bytearray = new byte[4096];
int size=0;
InputStream sImage;
sImage = rs.getBinaryStream(1);
response.reset();
response.setContentType(rs.get("contentType"));
while((size=sImage.read(bytearray))!= -1 )
{
response.getOutputStream().write(bytearray,0,size);
}


response.flushBuffer();
sImage.close();

Hai lookof2day,

Thanks for your Reply. It's working fine.

I need to do the slideshow action for the database images.

When i was using this code, the first image only it shows. But i am using the another way for storing the image in filesystem(i.e. store the image in image folder under the project root folder), Then we get those images and provide the slideshow with all those images. The code for this functionality, it's working well.
