[PATCH] Support blobs and binary data
Reported by Nolan Darilek | July 8th, 2008 @ 04:32 PM
I need to store binary data directly into a database as binary, not as text that is base64-encoded. As of now there doesn't appear to be any means of doing this.

I finally cleaned up the work I did on this back in July and ensured that it applies to head. Unfortunately I'm still struggling with the sqlite3 code as I'm having issues with the native driver, but this at least lays the groundwork for others to start coding this support into the various drivers.

I appear to have seriously broken the git history for this patch, so I'm submitting it as a plain diff rather than a format-patch.

This is the last piece of the puzzle, adding Binary type support to SQLite3.
Please let me know if anything on my end prevents these from being merged. I'd like to let others implement whatever needs done in the other DO drivers because a) I'm not familiar with all the database access libs and b) this functionality doesn't interfere with anything if the support is unimplemented, so having the framework in place might encourage others to do so for the next release.

I needed to install this locally, so I made extlib.patch a proper git patch.

Is this patch only the addition of ByteArray? Or is there more in the tar.bz2 you supplied? If you could create a patch against the latest do code, that would make it way easier for me to verify this...
