When I perform reverse engineering on a MySQL table with a BLOB, MyEclipse is generating the field as a String. IS THIS CORRECT?

I attempted to use the save method with

setUserImage(“images/Face.jpg”);

… and it didn’t throw up. Do you have any idea how I’m supposed to retrieve the BLOB as a string? Is it actually a byte []? Are there any examples on demand or otherwise?

Douglas,

No, String is incorrect. On certain databases the RE tool does not correctly detect this data type. To fix this, when you RE your table, go to page 3 and expand the tree to select the column which is of type BLOB. In the Hibernate type field, use “java.sql.Blob” and click Finish. This must only be done once for this column, the setting will persist across sessions.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
