Hi all.

I have some large binary content of unknown length which I want to insert into our Derby database. Our existing system does this by writing the content to a temporary location, determining its size and then using PreparedStatement's setInputStream method to pass it in.

However, it occurs to me that the Blob API gives me a way to access an OutputStream which can be written to in order to push the large binary data over to Derby. Problem is, Blob is an interface with no [useful] public implementations, and JDBC expects that each driver will offer a different way to do this (if at all.)

Does Derby have a "secret" way to create a Blob object?
