For this release I have completed changes to the MySQL Connector/J 5.0.7, to allow BLOB data to be transparently stored and retrieved from the MyBS BLOB repository. The new version of the driver is called MySQL Connector/J SE (streaming enabled).
That's a beautiful hack, Paul.Of course, you know what I'm going to say, but most of your readers weren't at MySQLCamp-US-East where I proposed it: We can use this experience to change mysql-proxy, as a stepping stone to making the next mysql protocol (labled "p+1" below) that has (at least) streaming built-in:
now: client -> server next: client (p+1) -> proxy => server + mybs & : client -> proxy -> server (p+1) & : client (p+1) -> server (p+1)so, older versions of client and server could speak to newer versions of server and client, perhaps with proxy as an intermediary.
Alas, this is a long-term dream. I'm not proposing it for anyone soon, but it's fun to think about.
