Re: Support for a binary storage field?
Whether you think RDMSSes are for binary data is mostly by the by. IMO the patch for #2417 is sub-optimal as it: 1) Subclasses the Char field. 2) Does not provide an intelligent manipulator. The solution to this problem is to provide a form upload field with the addition of a checkbox to signify deletion of the currently saved binary data. There is no sensible way to SHOW the current binary data - we can leave that up to the application designer. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.

Re: Support for a binary storage field?
Saving binary data as printable ASCII seems extremely hack^H^H^H suboptimal to me. To make a case for binary data - how about when you want to store a small image for a UserProfile. Saving to the local file-system doesn't work when you are clustering your application servers. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.

Re: Support for a binary storage field?
>it depends the FS you're using. To get round this problem I am using NFS. Do you have any other suggestions? Either way, I still think it would be nice to be able to store binary blobs directly via models. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.

Re: Support for a binary storage field?
> this would be like doing exact opposite - put the load of serving > static files onto the already busy DB server All of your arguments are based on the assumption that files would be served from the database. The only sane environment would be to store the files in the database as a reference but serve them from a filesystem/memcahce/squid cache. Only when the cached resource expires do you make a round-trip to the database again. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
