Display images from a SQL database

I want to display images from a SQL database. The images are in a table under a specific column and are stored as a link to the image. How would I display the images from the column in LabVIEW?
I'm using LabVIEW 2013 version 13 and SQL Server 2012

I have not lost my mind, it's backed up on a disk somewhere

Hi PauldePaor,
I hope you are well.
Once you have pulled the data from the database into LabVIEW in a string form (or path), you can simply use the Read BMP File (Or jpg, png depending on the file type) VI.

Problem displaying results from a SQL database

Hey everyone,
So I am basically fairly new to coding, i am doing a tutorial i found on the web and trying to implement into my own. I have gotten so far in it and now have struck a problem, when i search for a item in a database it wont find it and a previous problem i had was that it was displayin all the records instead of the searched records. Anyway here is my code and i would greatly appreciate any help as i am stuck on it for weeks now trying to change is around and its really disheartening. P.S. The link to the tutorial if its any help is:http://www.sebastiansulinski.co.uk/web_design_tutorials/tutorial/9/link_exchange_system_wi th_dreamweaver_cs3
Thanks

In your code, you have this -
// Search engine functionality
if ($_GET['make'] || $_GET['model']) {
$key = $_GET['make'];
$categ = $_GET['model'];
$query_rsStock = "SELECT * FROM stock WHERE stock.model LIKE '%$make%' AND stock.model LIKE '%$model%' ORDER BY stock.date DESC";
} else {
$query_rsStock = "SELECT * FROM stock ORDER BY date DESC";
The "else" part of the "if" block is what is selecting ALL the records -
$query_rsStock = "SELECT * FROM stock ORDER BY date DESC";
This means that the "if" part of the "if" block is always failing. When does it fail? Whenever you have not passed a URL variable for either "make" or "model". Are you sure you are correctly passing that variable?

Displaying images from url's (9i)

Is it possible to some how display images retrieved from a url within an image item? I know its possible to display images from within the database and from a file but these images are stored on another server and all i have is a web address, can it be done? Also is it possible to dislpay a series of images that are retrieved in this way in a report?
Any help is much appreciated.

Hi,
this would require a Java Bean to be written. Its not natively possible in Forms

JAVA, sqlserver - Need to load an image from the sql server database

hi,
I need to load an image from the sql server database using java. I have connected to the database and getting all other records except the records for a photo (datatype = LONGVARBINARY) and Remarks (datatype = LONGVARCHAR).
I am using java and sql server db. The photo and remarks are stored in the db. and i need to show the image and the remarks fetching them from there.
I get the error :
Thread-9 org.hibernate.MappingException: No Dialect mapping for JDBC type: -1
How can I achieve this?
Thanks,
Gargi

Exactly. And are you using MySQL?
No. You are using Microsoft SQL server if I have to believe your initial post. A quick google tells me that the dialect class to use is:
org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect

Displaying images stored in SQL Server

Is there someway of displaying images stored within SQL
Server. Is FDS required? Prefer a method to display images without
using FDS; Web Service would be okay if that can work

I do that sort of thing using PHP and mySQL the binary part
of the image is stored in a BLOB field (Binary Large OBject) along
the rest of the information necessary for the http headers (e.g.
mime type, file name, file size) being staored in their own fields.
That info is then used to build the file using PHP. The PHP
file contains a mySQL query whos result is echoed with the
appropriate headers. The URL points at the PHP file rather than at
any saved image.
Here's the php:
<?
# display_imagebank_file.php
# Note: the ID is passed through the url e.g.
# this_files_name.php?id=1
# connect to mysql database
mysql_connect('HOST', 'USERNAME', 'PASSWORD');
mysql_select_db('DATABASE');
# run a query to get the file information
$query = mysql_query("SELECT FileName, MimeType, FileSize,
FileContents FROM blobTable WHERE ID='$id'");
# perform an error check
if(mysql_num_rows($query)==1){
$fileName = mysql_result($query,0,0);
$fileType = mysql_result($query,0,1);
$fileSize = mysql_result($query,0,2);
$fileContents = mysql_result($query,0,3);
header("Content-type: $fileType");
header("Content-length: $fileSize");
header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=$fileName");
header("Content-Description: from imagebank");
header("Connection: close");
echo $fileContents;
}else{
$numRows = mysql_num_rows($query);
echo "File not found <br>";
echo $numRows;
echo " is the number of rows returned for id = ";
echo $ID;
?>
Hope that helps

Problem Displaying image from blob

Hi all,
I m using,
Database : 10g Rel 2
Frontend : DevSuite 10g
OS : WinXp
Browser : IE 6
Problem : In my forms i m displaying images from blob column but some of the images are not displayed. I have tried with all image formats available in combination with all available display quality but no luck. What could be the reason for it and how do i solve it?
Can anyone help me plz?
Thnx in advance.
Imtiaz

Hello,
It is very difficult for us to "guess" what images you can read and what others you cannot.
Maybe you could provide more information on images that are not displayed ?
What is their native format ?

Formating numbers in a form after retrieving from an SQL database

Hello everyone,
I am using php to populate a form using numbers taken from an sql database. I am having a hard time showing decimal places in those numbers. The code I am using in the value section of the form is:
value="<?php if (isset($_POST['unit_price_1'])) {
     echo htmlentities( $_POST['unit_price_1'], ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8');
     } else {
          echo htmlentities($row_getInvoice['unit_price_1'], ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8');
     } ?>" />
This code rounds all numbers up and eliminates decimal places. I am trying to show dollars and cents.
How do I alter the code to accomplish what I want.
Jeff

Not sure what might come in your way here, so I just made the following simple test by using a static value rather than one which gets derived from a recordset (the source shouldn´t matter), and this works well for me without seeing the value altered in any way:
<?php
$value = "10.22";
?>
<input type="text" name="whatever" value="<?php echo htmlentities($value, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8'); ?>" />
However,. for displaying numeric values you really don´t need to use htmlentities/ENT_COMPAT etc etc -- that´s something you´d rather use for displaying textual contents containg special characters like umlauts and such.
If all you need is to add some degree of protection by escaping special HTML characters (<, >, &, etc.), the function htmlspecialchars() will only be escaping just these characters and leave the rest "as is", whereas htmlentities() is notably more rigi, because this function will convert all applicable characters to HTML entities -- but again: at this point you´re just *displaying* some numeric value, that is, such security measures are pretty much pointless in this scenario, because there´s nothing to protect from ;-)
Please test what happens when doing away with the htmlentities - thing.
Cheers,
Günter

How to display image from wamp if the data type i use is blob?

please help me with the problem of displaying image from wamp if data type is blob. Thanks

Don't store the images in the database. Store the image file names in the database and put the images in a folder.

My iphone 4s suddenly displays images from Yahoo, Google, and Flickr at low resolution. The camera on my phone works fine, but any web related photo content is now pixelated and low res, what's the deal?

My iphone 4s suddenly displays images from Yahoo, Google, and Flickr at a low resolution. I have IOS 7.0.4. My phone camera works fine, but any web based photo content from Safari, Yahoo images, Google images, and Flickr all come in pixelated and low res. What's the deal?

It happened to me but later I figured out that cellular signal was not that great and so the Internet was very slow. It took me about 2 minutes to get the full resolution picuture on either of the app you've described. Try to get faster internet either by wifi or good signal and then check.

Display Images from HTMLDB_APPLICATION_FILES Table?

How do I display images from the HTMLDB_APPLICATION_FILES Table?
Are the contents full available potentially for display? Or only after I have written them to another display?
Please advise what I need to do or what corrections below is required:
The calling procedure is a item in a SELECT statement as part of a report query:
<P>
<(img src="#OWNER#.download_HAF_file?p_file= ' || nvl(ID,0) || ' height="50" width="50" )>, HAFimg<P>
The Procedure is a adaptation of the Chapter 8 Exercise of the 2 day developer guide:

     INTO v_mime, lob_loc, v_file_name, v_length
     FROM HTMLDB_APPLICATION_FILES
     WHERE ID = p_file;
     -- set up HTTP header
     -- use an NVL around the mime type and
     -- if it is a null set it to application/octect
     -- application/octect may launch a download window from windows
     owa_util.mime_header( NVL(v_mime,'application/octet'), FALSE );
     -- set the size so the browser knows how much to download

     -- the filename will be used by the browser if the users does a save as
     htp.p('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'||SUBSTR(v_file_name,INSTR(v_file_name,'/')+1)|| '"');

I believe you put HTML "pre" tags around your quote (with square brackets, I can't type them here because they'll be escaped).
If the example below looks formatted then using "pre" works, if not...then ignore me ;)
begin
select
    count(*)
into
    v_count
from big_table;
end;

Migrating from Azure SQL Database to SQL Server VM

I'm looking for steps/documentation to migrate a database from Azure SQL Database to SQL Server VM in the cloud. I want to make an app whose data is initially hosted in the former. Due to a few reasons, I might have to migrate to SQL Server VM. I'd
like to design the app such that ideally there is no downtime. Looking for guidance...

You can create bacpac file from Azure SQL database and Restore this bacpac file into SQL Server VM or any other place.

Generating next number from the SQL database using java

Hi friends, I have a problem and need your help. I am working on a project about submitting claims form through the adobe PDF file and SQL database. I have problem working on a web service (written in java) that will generate the next Invoice Number from the SQL Database table. The field type for the column is text(var char). *Example: I first need to get into the table and search for the last Invoice number in the table and if the last invoice number in the table from the database is 3, i would want to generate the next number which is 4 and filled it up in the PDF file through web service that i am implementing. Can you all provide me some guidelines on how to implement this method in my web service?
Thanks a lot. I need it by today. Hope someone can reply this as soon as possible.

far simpler to use a sequence generator, which most databases support.
Suggested method to get the max value in the column is NOT secure, unless you lock the entire table for update before you do so, which is a severe performance penalty.

Loading Image from MS SQL

Dear All, i got problem when i get an image from MS SQL and tried to output it to jsp page. See anyone would help!
Code segment for retrieve the image from MS SQL
String a = "SELECT POSTER FROM PP WHERE IMDB='111'";
ResultSet j = db1.executeQuery(a);
InputStream in =null;
while(j.next())
in = j.getBinaryStream("POSTER");
ServletOutputStream out = resp.getOutputStream();
byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
int len =0;
while((len=in.read(buf))>=0)
    out.write(buf,0,len);
in.close();
out.close();
j.close();
db1.closeStatement();
db1.closeConnection();1.when the program reach
"in.read(buf)", it throws exception as below
***[SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Object has been closed.
2. i debug the programe and observed the valuable "in" after
code segment " in = j.getBinaryStream("POSTER");", i got this outline for the valuable "in"
"in"=BaseInoutStreamWrapper(id=896204)
~ closed =false
~ isOutputStream=true
~ maxBytesReturn=2147483647
~numBytesReturn= 0
~numTotalBytesInStream=-1
i was wondering the meaning for "numTotalBytesInStream=-1" is could not getting anything of the image from MS SQL ?
Is anyone got idea about this?
Many thanks for your attention.

With any resultSet, it scrolls until calling next() returns false.
At this point you are past the end of the record set - you have moved past the current record, and are not able to access it.
You need to move your image processing code into the first while loop.
In fact, I think you need to change that while loop to an if statement - there is only one record returned from this query?
Conncetion con = null;
Statment db1 = null;
ResultSet j = null;
try{
String a = "SELECT POSTER FROM PP WHERE IMDB='111'";
con = getConnectionFromSomewhere();
db1 = con.createStatement();
j = db1.executeQuery(a);
// assume only one record is returned.
if (j.next()) {
    InputStream in = j.getBinaryStream("POSTER");
    ServletOutputStream out = resp.getOutputStream();
    byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
    int len =0;
    while((len=in.read(buf))>=0) {
      out.write(buf,0,len);
    in.close();
    out.close();
finally{
if (j!= null) j.close();
if (db1!= null) db1.closeStatement();
if (con!= null) con.closeConnection();
}
