Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi All,

I am new to XML. So any best guidance is appreciated.
The application requirement is to display image retrived from uploaded xml file in file upload section of our application. And store that image in database.
In my XML file , images & strings & numbers & booleans are there . I am able to save everything in database except images .

I am using JSF, Seam & Hibernate combination. In my Hibernate entity class i took BLOB datatype for image.
I am using following tags in my Xhtml file to display image
<s:graphicImage value="#{hibernateentitybean.picBlobtype}" height="200" width="200">
<s:transformImageSize width="200" height="200" />
<s:transformImageType contentType="image/jpeg"/>
But image is not displayed in Xhtml file

I am using org.w3c.dom.Document for retrieving node name & corresponding value in that node in XML file.
I am getting code like below for Image when i am logging all values from XML files in my bean class .

x0lGQRQAAAABAAAAAAAAAFJHAQARAAAAVwBhAHQAZQByACAAbABpAGwAaQBlAHMALgBqAHAAZwAAAP/Y/+AAEEpGSUYAAQIBAGAAYAAA/+0YLl

I want to convert this value to image. So i can convert image to bytes and store in BLOB.
Can anyone guide me ? or any other approach .


Thanks in advance for any reply.

Naresh
