I'm creating a simple page with a form. Part of the form requires uploading a pdf or word document. This will be a small file, so ideally I would like to store it in my oracle database.
I'm using ejb and toplink for all of my persistence. What object should my entity class have that will hold a word or pdf file, and how do I map it to toplink?
See Can toplink map BLOB data. In terms of what type your entity should use, it's either byte[] or a serializable type apparently.
