How to add a photo to mysql from java? -

i've created software using netbeans. want add pictures database. have created table , changed type 'blob'. but, idk how code in java this. this, image , set jlabel. how save photo in mysql?

try {             lbl_imge1.seticon(null);             jfilechooser1.showopendialog(this);             bufferedimage upload = imageio.read(jfilechooser1.getselectedfile());             java.awt.image photo = upload.getscaledinstance(lbl_imge1.getwidth(), lbl_imge1.getheight(), java.awt.image.scale_smooth);             lbl_imge1.seticon(new imageicon(photo));         } catch (exception e) {             e.printstacktrace();         } 

now here,

try {             jlabel1.seticon(null);             jfilechooser1.showopendialog(this);             bufferedimage upload = imageio.read(jfilechooser1.getselectedfile());             java.awt.image photo = upload.getscaledinstance(jlabel1.getwidth(), jlabel1.getheight(), java.awt.image.scale_smooth);             jlabel1.seticon(new imageicon(photo));              class.forname("com.mysql.jdbc.driver");             connection con = drivermanager.getconnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/crazy", "root", "123");              bufferedimage buffered = imageio.read(jfilechooser1.getselectedfile());              bytearrayoutputstream baos = new bytearrayoutputstream();             imageio.write(buffered, "jpg", baos);             byte[] imageinbyte = baos.tobytearray();              blob blob = con.createblob();             blob.setbytes(1, imageinbyte);              string query="insert image values ('"+jtextfield1.gettext()+"','"+blob+"')";             preparedstatement statement=con.preparestatement(query); 

1. take bufferedimage

   bufferedimage buffered= imageio.read(jfilechooser1.getselectedfile()); 

2. get byte array (from answer)

   bytearrayoutputstream baos = new bytearrayoutputstream(); imageio.write(buffered, "jpg", baos ); byte[] imageinbyte = baos.tobytearray(); 

3. save byte array blob (from answer) (probably use prepared statement)

   blob blob = connection.createblob(); blob.setbytes(1, imageinbyte); 

update: connection database connector i.e:

connection connection = drivermanager.getconnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test", "root", "root");
