Greetings

I use the following syntax to insert a image on my desktop PC. I would like to now use it in B4A but I cant get the syntax right.

iNSERT INTO TableA (Id,Images)
SELECT 1, BulkColumn
FROM Openrowset( Bulk 'C:\th.jpg', Single_Blob) as image

What would the syntax be in B4A including the correct file location reference.

Thank you
Steve

The PHP script doesn't support blobs. You will need to modify it. You can send the image encoded as base64 string and decode it in the php script.

Another option is to use RDC which does support blobs (and is more efficient).

I want to make sure I gave you all the right info. I'm using MS sqlServer with the script I found here

Hi again

Here's where I am currently

From the server after "http://127.0.0.1:17178/?method=test"



RemoteServer is running (Thu Sep 11 15:25:43 PDT 2014)
java.sql.SQLException: An attempt by a client to checkout a Connection has timed out.


Config.properties

#SQL Server
DriverClass=net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver
JdbcUrl=jdbc:sqlserver://127.0.0.1/test
User=sa
Password=ranger
ServerPort=17178
#If Debug is true then this file will be reloaded on every query.
#This is useful if you need to modify the queries.
Debug=true


#commands
sql.create_table=CREATE TABLE animals (\
id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,\
name CHAR(30) NOT NULL,\
image BLOB,\
PRIMARY KEY (id))

Again any help would be appreciated
thanks
steve

Greetings on again

I have had success in connecting to the server and inserting data through the internal and expernal ip address.
The only remaining issue is to figure out how to insert a image file from the smartphone. I see a few comments refering to the methods filetobytes,imagestobytes,bytestoimages but cannot find a sample to study. I am new to transmitting imagefiles and could use some help.

Thank you
Steve

This code will send a file:
B4X:
Dim cmd As DBCommand
cmd.Initialize
cmd.Name = "insert_animal"
cmd.Parameters = Array As Object("a1", reqManager.FileToBytes(File.DirAssets, "image.png"))
reqManager.ExecuteCommand(cmd, "cmd")

insert_animal statement is the one from this example: http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/31540
