How to store an image from a jsp page to Database

[Ravi Kiran Va]

I am trying to store an image from a jsp page . I will be using setBinaryStream method from PreparedStatement ?


But how can I pass the data from jsp to the servlet ??

Any ideas or suggestions please specify.

But how can I pass the data from jsp to the servlet ??

Not sure what the issue is with this- both Servlet and JSP are running on the server JVM so just pass the image as you would any other object.

Or are you asking how you upload the binary data from the client machine to the Servlet?

Thanks paul for responding ,

The question is i have a User Object , in which he has Name , Age , Image

public class User
{
String Name;
int Age ;
image // what is the datatype here and how can i pass ?
}

how can i send the image

Its up to you, but a byte array sounds like a good candidate.

Thanks paul ,

do i need to include byte array data type as setter and getter methods with User Object directly ??Please specify.

Hi,

That is good way if you declare your image type to byte array like

byte[] image;

And good to make getter and setter method in User object so you cane get user.getImage() method.

Thank You Nishan .

I asked this particular question to include byte array[] inside the DTO because.

in a site i read this should not be a part of DTO.
