Makes sense. I will go that route then. Can you still skip the scja and do the scjp?

I was trying to consider the cost of taking the exams.

I would like to start getting my certifications in Java. I do know the basics now. I was wondering if I should wait to get my certs via the se 7 exams? How long do you think it will be until the exams are finalized? It would be nice to get the certs sooner rather then later and I have ordered the McGraw-Hill book to study up. I also have access to Sun Java fundamental cd self study courses, but they are old for se 5, anyone think there maybe a problem with using the older self study materials?

Here are my options (I think):

Get SCJA
write the se 7 OCPJ when test is finalized.

Get SCJP
Upgrade to se 7 OCPJ when test is finalized.


Thanks!

Working on a project today I found that I could grep my password and see it with in compiled classes using VI. I'm sure other editors will show a string as well. Is there anyway to prevent this?

So it ended up being the way the data has been stored into the database. It's converted to another proprietary format. I have tested my code on another table in the database that has pdf's stored as blobs and those work fine.

I'm a little newish to java, but really new to sql server and datatype image.

I am trying to extract files from the database and store them locally on the computer. I have retrieved the image contains from the column with rs.getBlob, and have saved them to the system with the following code:

BufferedOutputStream bos = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(fileName));
bos.write(blob.getBytes( 1, (int) blob.length()), 0, (int) blob.length() );

This does save the file, but I can't open the file no matter what I change the extension to. The kicker is that I don't know what each file is suppose to be, the database does not contain the names of the files either.
