My requirement is to insert artist details and his picture through jsp into oracle database and retrieve back information and picture through another jsp program.
artist
As of version 6, Java SE provides JAXB by which the bytes may be converted in to base64 string. Here also you may convert the image byte[]
into base 64 string and it can be displayed using the html tag specifying the src data as base 64 i.e.
src="data:image/png;base64,
.
Modify your code as follows :
<%
PreparedStatement ps=con.prepareStatement("select * from artist");
ResultSet rs=ps.executeQuery();
while(rs.next()){ %>
artist fast name: <%=rs.getString(1) %>
artist middle name: <%=rs.getString(2) %>
artist last name <%=rs.getString(3) %>
artist job <%=rs.getString(4) %>
artist image
<%
Blob bl=rs.getBlob(5);
byte[] image=bl.getBytes(1, (int)bl.length());
%>
<%
}
con.close();
%>
Here is another sample jsp page for getting a clear idea :
<%@page import="java.awt.image.BufferedImage"%>
<%@page import="javax.imageio.ImageIO"%>
<%@page import="java.io.*"%>
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
Insert title here
<%
BufferedImage bImage = ImageIO.read(new File("/home/visruth/Desktop/Visruth.jpg"));//give the path of an image
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ImageIO.write( bImage, "jpg", baos );
baos.flush();
byte[] imageInByteArray = baos.toByteArray();
baos.close();
String b64 = javax.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter.printBase64Binary(imageInByteArray);
%>
