Hi,I have a property on a node called 'blobData' this property has been loaded using the following snippet: ValueFactory factory = session.getValueFactory(); Value value = factory.createValue(new ByteArrayInputStream(data)); node.setProperty(propertyName, value); Then obviously further on a call to session.save(); is used to persist this. I am now trying to get this binary information back from the property using: InputStream inputStream = node.getProperty(property) .getStream(); int readInt = 0; while ((readInt = inputStream.read()) >= 0) { outputStream.write(readInt); } return outputStream.toByteArray(); However this always returns an empty byte array as the first call to inputStream.read() returns -1 indicating the end of the stream. Could someone point me in the direction of my error.
your code looks fine so far. if you are directly accessing a local jackrabbit instance i guess the error must be in that part of the code that you didn't provide. if you're accessing a remote jackrabbit instance through RMI there could be an issue wrt stream handling in the RMI implementation. in any case it would be good if you could provide a complete code sample. btw: the users list would be more appropriate for such questions. cheers stefan
Thanks, Shane.
