All, Say you encounter a blob in a database. There's no way to tell if that blob carries bytes, floats, doubles, etc, correct?
Assuming the above is true, then is it always prudent to store some metadata along with your blobs so that they can be identified in the future? Example table: ModelNo TEXT (e.g. SO-239) SerialNo TEXT (e.g. 101) VSWR BLOB (e.g. x'feab12c...') VSWR_Type TEXT (e.g. double) Does this make sense? Thanks, -Bill
