Retrieve image from database in java

PreparedStatement provides the facility to store and retrieve the images in the database using JDBC.

PreparedStatement methods to retrieve image:

public Blob getBlob(int columnIndex) throws SQLException 

Example:

JDBCTest.java

import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.sql.Blob;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.PreparedStatement;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import com.w3spoint.util.JDBCUtil;
 
/**
 * This class is used to retrieve a image from DB.
 * @author w3spoint
 */
public class JDBCTest {
	public static void main(String args[]){
		Connection conn = null;
		PreparedStatement preparedStatement = null;
 
		String query = "select * from IMAGESTORE " +
		"where IMAGE_ID = 1";
 
		try{			
			//get connection
			conn = JDBCUtil.getConnection();
 
			//create preparedStatement
			preparedStatement = 
				conn.prepareStatement(query);
 
			//execute query
			ResultSet resultSet = 
				preparedStatement.executeQuery();
			resultSet.next();  
 
			Blob clob = resultSet.getBlob(2);
			byte[] byteArr =  
				clob.getBytes(1,(int)clob.length());
 
			FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = 
			   new FileOutputStream("F:\\savedImage.jpg");
			fileOutputStream.write(byteArr);  
 
		     System.out.println("Image retrieved successfully.");
 
			//close connection
			fileOutputStream.close();
			preparedStatement.close();
			conn.close();
		}catch(Exception e){
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
	}	
}

JDBCUtil.java

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
 
/**
 * This is a utility class for JDBC connection.
 * @author w3spoint
 */
public class JDBCUtil {
	//JDBC and database properties.
	private static final String DB_DRIVER = 
		           "oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver";
	private static final String DB_URL = 
		        "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE";
	private static final String DB_USERNAME = "system";
	private static final String DB_PASSWORD = "oracle";
 
	public static Connection getConnection(){
		Connection conn = null;
		try{
			//Register the JDBC driver
			Class.forName(DB_DRIVER);
 
			//Open the connection
			conn = DriverManager.
			getConnection(DB_URL, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD);
 
			if(conn != null){
			   System.out.println("Successfully connected.");
			}else{
			   System.out.println("Failed to connect.");
			}
		}catch(Exception e){
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
		return conn;
	}	
}

Output:

Successfully connected.
Image retrieved successfully.
