How can I extract files from an Oracle BLOB field?

问题

I have a database which has a number of files stored in a BLOB field.

How can I extract & save the original files? There are many different file types - doc, pdf, xls, etc. The table has the extension in one col, and the original file name in another. There may be multiple files with the same file name, too.

You can use the UTL_FILE package to do this in version 9i onwards

something like this:

DECLARE
  l_file      UTL_FILE.FILE_TYPE;
  l_buffer    RAW(32767);
  l_amount    BINARY_INTEGER := 32767;
  l_pos       NUMBER := 1;
  l_blob      BLOB;
  l_blob_len  NUMBER;
BEGIN

  SELECT blobcol
  INTO   l_blob
  FROM   table
  WHERE  rownum = 1;

  l_blob_len := DBMS_LOB.getlength(l_blob);

  -- Open the destination file.
  l_file := UTL_FILE.fopen(<location>,<filename>,'wb', 32767);

  WHILE l_pos < l_blob_len LOOP
    DBMS_LOB.read(l_blob, l_amount, l_pos, l_buffer);
    UTL_FILE.put_raw(l_file, l_buffer, TRUE);
    l_pos := l_pos + l_amount;
  END LOOP;

  -- Close the file.
  UTL_FILE.fclose(l_file);

END;
/
