How to convert Blob?

58 New Member
I m using JSP @ front end and MySql db @ back end and the connectivity thru JDBC. While retrieving a blob(MySql format) from the db back to JSP i need to convert ths to blob(Java comaptible format)..

For ths i ve used getBlob() specified in the ResultSet API docs. Bt when i run i get an error as

com.mysql.jdbc. Blob@152c4d9

The above gets printed for all the blobs with a diff in the no present @ the end....
How do u convert these blobs?

You are simply printing that Blob aren't you? Then that is not an error that you are getting. It's simply the String representation of that Blob.
What do you want to do with these Blobs? Display them as pictures?

According to the Blob jdbc API documentation you can get an InputStream given
a Blob; make good use of that.

kind regards,
