Hi all,
It is nice to have so that user code can use it. If HSQLDB supports/ed
it, then it is also necessary so that we don't regress.
FWIW, my understanding is that the OOo, and consequently LO code, only
supports CLOB in binary streams, which is one of the reasons why the
MySQL native driver never got full BLOB support. The people from Sun did
look at implementing it, but it never happened, and I don't remember now
whether it was due to a lack of resources, or a problem in the API.
From a user perspective, LO only currently supports images as a
recognized binary stream, the others are all replaced in tables, forms,
etc with the <OBJECT> placeholder. I'm not knowledgable enough about the
LO code to say whether the binary stream management code allows for
other types of stream (videos, sounds, etc), but these have not been
implemented at UI level. I seem to recall someone on the former dba-dev
OOo list (Fernand Vanrie ?) played around with UNO in the past to get
binary streams read/converted via Basic macros, but I don't know how
much success he had, so perhaps it is possible after all.
