Re: create BLOB question

I'm writing the BLOB wrapper.

3 methods have ambiguous implementations.

public java.io.OutputStream setBinaryStream(long pos) throws SQLException{
}
public int setBytes(long pos,byte[] bytes) throws SQLException{
}
public int setBytes(long pos,byte[] bytes,int offset,int len) throws SQLException{
}

If I already have an array of data. An I start writing to it at position
pos, does it overwrite the old data or insert into the array at that
point and move the old data down toward the end?
