Blob

Fields Summary

Constructors Summary

Methods Summary
public java.io.InputStream	getBinaryStream() Retrieves the BLOB value designated by this Blob instance as a stream. return a stream containing the BLOB data exception SQLException if there is an error accessing the BLOB value see #setBinaryStream since 1.2
public byte[]	getBytes(long pos, int length) Retrieves all or part of the BLOB value that this Blob object represents, as an array of bytes. This byte array contains up to length consecutive bytes starting at position pos. param pos the ordinal position of the first byte in the BLOB value to be extracted; the first byte is at position 1 param length the number of consecutive bytes to be copied return 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 exception SQLException if there is an error accessing the BLOB value see #setBytes since 1.2
public long	length() Returns the number of bytes in the BLOB value designated by this Blob object. return length of the BLOB in bytes exception SQLException if there is an error accessing the length of the BLOB since 1.2
public long	position(byte[] pattern, long start) Retrieves the byte position at which the specified byte array pattern begins within the BLOB value that this Blob object represents. The search for pattern begins at position start. param pattern the byte array for which to search param start the position at which to begin searching; the first position is 1 return the position at which the pattern appears, else -1 exception SQLException if there is an error accessing the BLOB since 1.2
public long	position(java.sql.Blob pattern, long start) Retrieves the byte position in the BLOB value designated by this Blob object at which pattern begins. The search begins at position start. param pattern the Blob object designating the BLOB value for which to search param start the position in the BLOB value at which to begin searching; the first position is 1 return the position at which the pattern begins, else -1 exception SQLException if there is an error accessing the BLOB value since 1.2
public java.io.OutputStream	setBinaryStream(long pos) Retrieves a stream that can be used to write to the BLOB value that this Blob object represents. The stream begins at position pos. param pos the position in the BLOB value at which to start writing return a java.io.OutputStream object to which data can be written exception SQLException if there is an error accessing the BLOB value see #getBinaryStream since 1.4
public int	setBytes(long pos, byte[] bytes) 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. param pos the position in the BLOB object at which to start writing param bytes the array of bytes to be written to the BLOB value that this Blob object represents return the number of bytes written exception SQLException if there is an error accessing the BLOB value see #getBytes since 1.4
public int	setBytes(long pos, byte[] bytes, int offset, int len) 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. param pos the position in the BLOB object at which to start writing param bytes the array of bytes to be written to this BLOB object param offset the offset into the array bytes at which to start reading the bytes to be set param len the number of bytes to be written to the BLOB value from the array of bytes bytes return the number of bytes written exception SQLException if there is an error accessing the BLOB value see #getBytes since 1.4
public void	truncate(long len) Truncates the BLOB value that this Blob object represents to be len bytes in length. param len the length, in bytes, to which the BLOB value that this Blob object represents should be truncated exception SQLException if there is an error accessing the BLOB value since 1.4
