Hi,
You can use blob to store image in db, but this will increase your
db size. The problem here is, when u have to update with new image, then u
need to reinsert those records which is painful.
Simple would be to store the image files locally and store only the relative
image path in the db.
In future if u change the directory of the image, it is again simple to
change the path in db with one single update query.
Thanks,
Nandakumar

Subject: [Java] [java:Help] Storing images in DB
Hi
This is Hitesh.
I am working on a web application of online test.
In this online- test, at some places images will be shown to the candidates.
So...
How can I store and retrieve the images in DBMS?
What would be better storing the whole image or just the path of that image
but in that case changing the image dir.could create problem later.
Help me techies...
Regards
Hitesh
