Writing BLOBS to the filesystem

Question

Here's my problem.
I know how to read any filetype into the database using a OLE
container mapped to a BLOB column in the Oracle 8i database.
How do I then, write the BLOB to the filesystem.
null

Hello AlaaShaw,
Best practice for this type of application is to have two loops--one that handles deterministic operations and one that performs non-deterministic operations (such as writing to file or communicating to the host PC). You can transfer data between these loops using RT FIFO variables without affecting the determinism of your main loop, or with single-process shared variables. Here is a help document explaining data communication:

An example for how to implement this architecture can be seen here:

In the future, please post to the LabVIEW RT discussion forum.  This will increase the visibly of your issue and increase the response time.
