Well presumably, you can pass raw data to the database? If so, try something like:

[NSKeyedArchiver archivedDataWithRootObject: theImage];

and then later:

[NSKeyedUnarchiver unarchiveObjectWithData: databaseData];

For my first program I am trying to write in Cocoa I need to save images of products to a MySQL database.
I already have a connection to the database and I can send all information of a product to the database and retrieve it, but I don't know how to handle images.
I have searched google, but I have not found any good solutions or example code.


Probably I have to convert my NSImage to some sort of string representation and then save it to a BLOB field in the database, but how do I represent an image as a string?
And at least as important, how do I create an image of it when I retrieve this data from the database?


Am I thinking in the right direction, or should I handle things differently?

Tnx in advance, Michael
