Regarding adding PDF file to adf Form

Question

Hi,
in my application i have created a entity object which uses a database table*( PDF_table)*
PDF_table has two columns i.e PDF_file (of type BLOB) and PDF description  (of type varchar(100))
and in the ADF form my requirement is to browse a PDF file stored anywhere in the computer and save it in the database table(PDF_table).
Can anybody tell me how can i do this?

Hi,
Thanks Samith and Shay for the reply..
By using the links given by you guys i modified my application. but i am getting problem while committing ti Database..
The source code of my application as follows..
*<af:document id="d1">*
*<af:messages id="m1"/>*
*<af:form id="f1" usesUpload="true">*
*<af:panelFormLayout id="pfl1">*
*<af:inputText value="#{bindings.Description.inputValue}"* // description is a attribute of Database Table and of type varchar2
*label="#{bindings.Description.hints.label}"*
*required="#{bindings.Description.hints.mandatory}"*
*columns="#{bindings.Description.hints.displayWidth}"*
*maximumLength="#{bindings.Description.hints.precision}"*
*shortDesc="#{bindings.Description.hints.tooltip}"*
*id="it1">*
*<f:validator binding="#{bindings.Description.validator}"/>*
*</af:inputText>*
*<af:inputFile label="Label 1" id="if1"*
*value="#{bindings.Pdf.inputValue}" autoSubmit="true"/>* //where Pdf is a attribute of database table of type BFILE
*<af:commandButton actionListener="#{bindings.CreateInsert.execute}"*
*text="CreateInsert"*
*disabled="#{!bindings.CreateInsert.enabled}"*
*id="cb1"/>*
*<af:commandButton actionListener="#{bindings.Commit.execute}"*
*text="Commit"*
*id="cb2"/>*
*</af:panelFormLayout>*
*</af:form>*
*</af:document>*
but after entering description and file path when i enter Commit it is showing an error i.e
*Error: Cannot convert org.apache.myfaces.trinidadinternal.config.upload.UploadedFiles$FixFilename@155ef67 of type
classorg.apache.myfaces.trinidadinternal.config.upload.UploadedFiles$FixFilename to class oracle.jbo.domain.BFileDomain*
how can i solve this?...
