Re: PDF stored in BLOB

Thanks. I just converted BLOB to CLOB and used CLOB variable to convert
into java string and sent it in JSON. It looks like it worked .. waiting
for a confirmation from client..

Mohammad,

A BLOB is a binary large object; as it is binary, not character, it does
not have a CCSID. If you store something in base64 encoding, it would make
more sense to use CLOB, character large object, which does have a CCSID.

Anyway, if you Google 'retrieve BLOB in RPG' you'll find several useful
descriptions.

I have a PDF document stored in a table BLOB field with bas64 encoding.

How can I extract it and pass it to web-service in json format. It looks
like blob field is in CCSID 65535.
