Hi,
I am trying to insert an image, which is stored as a blob in MySQL,
into a table using Reportlab.
I have tried this:
from StringIO import StringIO
cfoto = StringIO(result[0][1]) # where result[0][1] is the 'blob'
cfoto.seek(0)
foto=cfoto.getvalue
But when I do:
print foto, I see something similar to this:
array('c','\xff\xd8\............etc.......etc......')
This is also the string I see in the table, in stead of the actual image.
I have tried:
cfoto StringIO()
cfoto.write(result[0][1].tostring())
foto=cfoto.getvalue()
that returns:
ÿØÿàúlbo¤qÁ5¼–Ò\¸•£ˆˆ‡Y|Aø—,ñé–ú…"ìâm3Z¸ŒÁfêñ""NÔ,¡¾ÚÀIæÃt"Äb5Î@xqô'ÍkÕÁå¼sàßd˜ª²«ÍÉ1ØœÏ
‡^ÖJ*™C(r)ë{:tâ¥_‡Çâ–´°joÙÃ
¿C(c) ¯äÜ[)¯gN«ÃæXßi etc... etc...
and return an UnicodeDecodeError when I try to insert this into the table
Any ideas or clues someone? Your help is appreciated.

(BTW, the MySQL image blob is valid, it shows up in MySQL Query Browser)
