Hi!
I use the BLOB.putBytes(pos, buf) method to write chunkwise from an
inputstream to a new BLOB before writing it to a database.

<sample code>
BLOB blob = BLOB.createTemporary(con, false, BLOB.DURATION_SESSION);
blob.open(BLOB.MODE_READWRITE);

byte[] binaryBuffer;
long position;
int chunkSize = 0;
int bytesRead = 0;
int bytesWritten = 0;

try {
 chunkSize = blob.getChunkSize();
 binaryBuffer = new byte[chunkSize];

 position = 1;

 while ( (bytesRead = in.read(binaryBuffer)) != -1) {
   bytesWritten = blob.putBytes(position, binaryBuffer);
   position += bytesRead;
 }
} catch (Exception e) {
 //some error handling...
}
</sample code>

This method seems to be deprecated...
what should i use instead??

greetings, arash.
