Detailed Description

is the representation (mapping) of an SQL BLOB.

A SQL BLOB is a built-in type that stores a Binary Large Object as a column value in a row of a database table. The driver implements BLOB using a 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 com::sun::star::sdbc::XResultSet , and com::sun::star::sdbc::XPreparedStatement , such as getBlob and setBlob allow a programmer to access the SQL BLOB.
The Blob interface provides methods for getting the length of a 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.

Member Function Documentation

◆ getBinaryStream()

com::sun::star::io::XInputStream getBinaryStream ( )
raises (SQLException
)

retrieves the BLOB designated by this Blob instance as a stream.

Returns
the stream
Exceptions
SQLExceptionif a database access error occurs.

◆ getBytes()

sequence<byte> getBytes ( [in] hyper  pos,
[in] long  length 
)
raises (SQLException
)

returns as an array of bytes part or all of the BLOB value that this Blob object designates.

The byte array contains up to length consecutive bytes starting at position pos.

Parameters
posis the ordinal position of the first byte in the BLOB value to be extracted; the first byte is at position 1.
lengthis the number of consecutive bytes to be copied.
Returns
a byte array containing up to length consecutive bytes from the BLOB value designated by this Blob object, starting with the byte at position pos.
Exceptions
SQLExceptionif there is an error accessing the BLOB.

◆ length()

hyper length ( )
raises (SQLException
)

returns the number of bytes in the BLOB value designated by this Blob object.

Returns
the length
Exceptions
SQLExceptionif a database access error occurs.

◆ position()

hyper position ( [in] sequence< byte >  pattern,
[in] hyper  start 
)
raises (SQLException
)

determines the byte position at which the specified byte pattern begins within the BLOB value that this Blob object represents.

The search for pattern begins at position start.

Parameters
patternthe pattern to search
startthe start position for the search
Returns
the position
Exceptions
SQLExceptionif a database access error occurs.

◆ positionOfBlob()

hyper positionOfBlob ( [in] XBlob  pattern,
[in] hyper  start 
)
raises (SQLException
)

determines the byte position in the BLOB value designated by this Blob object at which pattern begins.

The search begins at position start.

Parameters
patternthe pattern to search
startposition to start
Returns
the position
Exceptions
SQLExceptionif a database access error occurs.
