Interface Blob

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    SerialBlob

    public interface Blob
    The representation (mapping) in the JavaTM programming language of an SQL BLOB value. An SQL BLOB is a built-in type that stores a Binary Large Object as a column value in a row of a database table. By default drivers implement Blob using an SQL locator(BLOB), which means that a Blob object contains a logical pointer to the SQL BLOB data rather than the data itself. A Blob object is valid for the duration of the transaction in which is was created.

    Methods in the interfaces ResultSet, CallableStatement, and PreparedStatement, such as getBlob and setBlob allow a programmer to access an SQL BLOB value. The Blob interface provides methods for getting the length of an SQL BLOB (Binary Large Object) value, for materializing a BLOB value on the client, and for determining the position of a pattern of bytes within a BLOB value. In addition, this interface has methods for updating a BLOB value.

    All methods on the Blob interface must be fully implemented if the JDBC driver supports the data type.

      • setBytes

        int setBytes(long pos,
                   byte[] bytes)
                     throws SQLException
        Writes the given array of bytes to the BLOB value that this Blob object represents, starting at position pos, and returns the number of bytes written. The array of bytes will overwrite the existing bytes in the Blob object starting at the position pos. If the end of the Blob value is reached while writing the array of bytes, then the length of the Blob value will be increased to accomodate the extra bytes.

        Note: If the value specified for pos is greater then the length+1 of the BLOB value then the behavior is undefined. Some JDBC drivers may throw a SQLException while other drivers may support this operation.

        Parameters:
        pos - the position in the BLOB object at which to start writing; the first position is 1
        bytes - the array of bytes to be written to the BLOB value that this Blob object represents
        Returns:
        the number of bytes written
        Throws:
        SQLException - if there is an error accessing the BLOB value or if pos is less than 1

      • setBytes

        int setBytes(long pos,
                   byte[] bytes,
                   int offset,
                   int len)
                     throws SQLException
        Writes all or part of the given byte array to the BLOB value that this Blob object represents and returns the number of bytes written. Writing starts at position pos in the BLOB value; len bytes from the given byte array are written. The array of bytes will overwrite the existing bytes in the Blob object starting at the position pos. If the end of the Blob value is reached while writing the array of bytes, then the length of the Blob value will be increased to accomodate the extra bytes.

        Note: If the value specified for pos is greater then the length+1 of the BLOB value then the behavior is undefined. Some JDBC drivers may throw a SQLException while other drivers may support this operation.

        Parameters:
        pos - the position in the BLOB object at which to start writing; the first position is 1
        bytes - the array of bytes to be written to this BLOB object
        offset - the offset into the array bytes at which to start reading the bytes to be set
        len - the number of bytes to be written to the BLOB value from the array of bytes bytes
        Returns:
        the number of bytes written
        Throws:
        SQLException - if there is an error accessing the BLOB value or if pos is less than 1
        SQLFeatureNotSupportedException - if the JDBC driver does not support this method

      • setBinaryStream

        OutputStream setBinaryStream(long pos)
                                     throws SQLException
        Retrieves a stream that can be used to write to the BLOB value that this Blob object represents. The stream begins at position pos. The bytes written to the stream will overwrite the existing bytes in the Blob object starting at the position pos. If the end of the Blob value is reached while writing to the stream, then the length of the Blob value will be increased to accomodate the extra bytes.

        Note: If the value specified for pos is greater then the length+1 of the BLOB value then the behavior is undefined. Some JDBC drivers may throw a SQLException while other drivers may support this operation.

        Parameters:
        pos - the position in the BLOB value at which to start writing; the first position is 1
        Returns:
        a java.io.OutputStream object to which data can be written
        Throws:
        SQLException - if there is an error accessing the BLOB value or if pos is less than 1

      • truncate

        void truncate(long len)
                      throws SQLException
        Truncates the BLOB value that this Blob object represents to be len bytes in length.

        Note: If the value specified for pos is greater then the length+1 of the BLOB value then the behavior is undefined. Some JDBC drivers may throw a SQLException while other drivers may support this operation.

        Parameters:
        len - the length, in bytes, to which the BLOB value that this Blob object represents should be truncated
        Throws:
        SQLException - if there is an error accessing the BLOB value or if len is less than 0
        SQLFeatureNotSupportedException - if the JDBC driver does not support this method
        Since:
        1.4
      • free

        void free()
                  throws SQLException
        This method frees the Blob object and releases the resources that it holds. The object is invalid once the free method is called.

        After free has been called, any attempt to invoke a method other than free will result in a SQLException being thrown. If free is called multiple times, the subsequent calls to free are treated as a no-op.

        Throws:
        SQLException - if an error occurs releasing the Blob's resources
        SQLFeatureNotSupportedException - if the JDBC driver does not support this method
        Since:
        1.6
      • getBinaryStream

        InputStream getBinaryStream(long pos,
                                  long length)
                                    throws SQLException
        Returns an InputStream object that contains a partial Blob value, starting with the byte specified by pos, which is length bytes in length.
        Parameters:
        pos - the offset to the first byte of the partial value to be retrieved. The first byte in the Blob is at position 1
        length - the length in bytes of the partial value to be retrieved
        Returns:
        InputStream through which the partial Blob value can be read.
        Throws:
        SQLException - if pos is less than 1 or if pos is greater than the number of bytes in the Blob or if pos + length is greater than the number of bytes in the Blob
        SQLFeatureNotSupportedException - if the JDBC driver does not support this method
        Since:
        1.6
