For real-life example, check out http://cdbaza.ultracgis.com, and check
out the filename
of the thumbnails images. I'm SELECTing those images from the MySQL
database.
That's how it's done:
1_ Create a table to store your JPGs, and the column that holds JPG data
should be declared as BLOB
CREATE TABLE images (
image_id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUT_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
image BLOB NOT NULL
);
2_ Now you are ready to load the JPG data into the image column.
I use Perl to open the JPG file and dump the contents into the table,
and the resulting query looks something like:
INSERT INTO images SET image="here goes contents of the JPG file";
Perl code that does this job would look like:
local ($/);
sysopen (JPG, "test.jpg", O_RDONLY) or die $!;
$dbh->do(qq|INSERT INTO images SET image=?|, undef, <JPG>);
close (JPG);
Sorry if you don't know Perl, but you should be able to do similar
thing in any other language you might be using
Good luck!
