Subject Blob-Handling UDF
Author tgrundke
Hallo,

I need BlobData in a UDF. When the BlobData need 2 or more memorysegments in the database then is the result not ok.
I have the Source from FB, but i where can i find the implementation "read a blob-segment in a UDF"?

testSource:

TISC_BlobGetSegment = function(BlobHandle: PInt;
Buffer: PChar;
BufferSize: LongInt;
var ResultLength: LongInt): Short; cdecl;
TISC_BlobPutSegment = procedure(BlobHandle: PInt;
Buffer: PChar;
BufferLength: Short); cdecl;
TBlob = record
GetSegment : TISC_BlobGetSegment;
BlobHandle : PInt;
SegmentCount : LongInt;
MaxSegmentLength : LongInt;
TotalSize : LongInt;
PutSegment : TISC_BlobPutSegment;
end;
PBlob = ^TBlob;

function BlobToStream(aBlob: PBlob): TStream;
var
il_TempPos: LongInt;
il_BytesToRead: LongInt;
il_BytesRead: LongInt;
il_temp: integer;
sl_Buffer: string;
il_result: integer;
Stream: TMemoryStream;
il_count: integer;
begin
il_count := 0;
Stream := TMemoryStream.Create;
try
with aBlob^ do
begin
il_temp := 0;
SetString(sl_Buffer, nil, TotalSize);
il_TempPos := 0;
il_BytesToRead := TotalSize;
il_BytesRead := 0;
while il_BytesToRead > 0 do
begin
// il_BytesRead := 0;
il_result := GetSegment(BlobHandle, @sl_Buffer[il_TempPos + 1], il_BytesToRead, il_BytesRead);
// showmessage('Pos: ' + inttostr(il_TempPos) + #13 +
// 'offen: ' + inttostr(il_BytesToRead) + #13 +
// 'gelesen: ' + inttostr(il_BytesRead) + #13 +
// 'result: ' + inttostr(il_result) + #13 +
// 'segmentcount: ' + inttostr(segmentcount));
// inc(il_count);
// if il_count = 20 then exit;
inc(il_TempPos, il_BytesRead);
dec(il_BytesToRead, il_BytesRead);
if il_result = 0 then
begin
// showmessage('Pos: ' + inttostr(il_TempPos) + #13 +
// 'offen: ' + inttostr(il_BytesToRead) + #13 +
// 'gelesen: ' + inttostr(il_BytesRead) + #13 +
// 'result: ' + inttostr(il_result) + #13 + 'exit');
exit;
end;
end;
end;
Stream.WriteBuffer(PChar(sl_Buffer)[1], length(sl_Buffer));
Stream.Position := 0;
sl_Buffer := '';
result := Stream;
except
Stream.Free;
raise;
end;
end;
