I've done this before with another language. MySQL is VERY slow with
large BLOBs. I'd recommend storing a path to a file somewhere instead.

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
