5 Oracle Multimedia Java API Sample Application

This chapter describes the Oracle Multimedia Java API sample application. The Oracle Multimedia Java API sample application is a Java application that uses Oracle Multimedia Java classes to demonstrate how to upload, download, update, and delete Oracle Multimedia objects, including image, audio, and video. It also demonstrates how to extract attributes from media content, generate thumbnail images, and display media.

This chapter assumes the following:

After installing the Oracle Database Examples media, the sample application files and README.txt file are located at:

<ORACLE_HOME>/ord/im/demo/java (on Linux and UNIX)

<ORACLE_HOME>\ord\im\demo\java (on Windows)

This chapter describes how to run the Oracle Multimedia Java API sample application. See Section 2.4.1 and the README.txt file for additional requirements and instructions on installing, configuring, compiling, and running this sample application.

This chapter includes these sections:

More Sample Applications

See these chapters for more sample applications:

Chapter 3 describes these Photo Album sample Web applications:

These Web applications use PL/SQL scripts, Java servlet files, and JSP files to demonstrate various ways to upload and retrieve media using Oracle Multimedia object types.

Chapter 4 describes the Oracle Multimedia Code Wizard sample application, a media upload and retrieval Web application for the PL/SQL Gateway.

5.1 Running the Oracle Multimedia Java API Sample Application

To use the Oracle Multimedia Java API sample application to retrieve, save, play, and delete multimedia data from the Oracle Database sample schemas, you must perform these steps:

  1. Install Oracle Database with Oracle Multimedia.

  2. Grant the appropriate permissions to the user who is connecting to the database.

  3. Compile and start the sample application.

  4. Log in and run the sample application.

The following section describes the Java class files, and shows code examples that demonstrate how to use Oracle Multimedia object types and methods and other Oracle objects in a Java application.

5.2 Description of the Oracle Multimedia Java API Sample Application

The Oracle Multimedia Java API sample application lets you retrieve multimedia data from the Oracle Database sample schemas, save to a file, play, and delete from the sample schema image, audio, video, and testimonial data using these Oracle Multimedia object types:

This sample application uses the PRODUCT_INFORMATION table in the Order Entry (OE) sample schema, and the ONLINE_MEDIA table in the Product Media (PM) sample schema.

Note:

After installing Oracle Multimedia, if the OE and PM sample schemas do not exist, you must install them manually before compiling and running the sample application.

See Also:

Oracle Database Sample Schemas for more information about the OE and PM schemas

The Oracle Multimedia Java API sample application, when compiled, creates the class files shown in Table 5-1:

Extends the IMMediaPanel class and displays the product video and its attributes: MIME type, frame height, frame width, duration of the video, and content length.

IMDocPanel

Extends the IMMediaPanel class and displays the product testimonials and its attributes: MIME type and content length.

IMLoadFile

Loads a media stream (photo, video, audio, and testimonials), from a file to the PM.ONLINE_MEDIA table in the database, and if necessary, inserts a row and initializes the media objects, then updates the media data, sets the media attributes, and generates and updates the thumbnail image if loading a photo.

IMSaveFile

Saves a media stream from the database to a target file.

IMMediaPanel

Extends the JPanel class, lays out the common components for the photo, audio, video, and doc panel with load, save, delete, and play check boxes, initializes the MIME configuration file for each operating system that lists plug-in players and media and their associated MIME types, plays the data stream associated with the MIME type of the media, and enables users to specify their own player to play the media data stream.


The major flow among these class files is: IMExample to IMExampleFrame to IMLoginDialog (login) to IMExampleFrame.showDefaultTable( ) to IMExampleQuery to IMProductDialog to one group of classes (IMImagePanel, IMAudioPanel, IMVideoPanel, IMDocPanel), and finally to the last group of classes (IMLoadFile, IMSaveFile, IMMediaPanel).

The following subsections describe the main operations that are performed within specific classes in the Oracle Multimedia Java API sample application:

5.2.1 Operations in the IMProductDialog Class

This class defines the following methods followed by a description of what each method does:

  • The loadMedia( ) method to retrieve the media objects from the database. This method performs a SQL SELECT...FOR UPDATE statement on the PM.ONLINE_MEDIA table where the PRODUCT_ID column is a parameter marker; then this class uses the getORAData and getORADataFactory interfaces to get the media data objects from the result set.

  • The displayMedia( ) method to display the media data, which in turn calls the corresponding media display methods displayImage( ), displayAudio( ), displayVideo( ), and displayDoc ( ).

  • The displayImage( ) method calls the IMImagePanel.display( ) method to display the image data attributes, display the thumbnail image, and display the full sized image using a media player that supports this MIME type.

  • The displayAudio( ) method calls the IMAudioPanel.display( ) method to display the audio data attributes and play the audio stream using a media player that supports this MIME type.

  • The displayVideo( ) method calls the IMVideoPanel.display( ) method to display the video data attributes and play the video stream using a media player that supports this MIME type.

  • The displayDoc( ) method calls the IMDocPanel.display( ) method to display the testimonial data attributes and play the testimonial data using a media player that supports this MIME type.

The following code example shows the loadMedia( ), displayMedia( ), displayImage( ), displayAudio( ), displayVideo( ), and displayDoc( ) methods, and highlights in bold the SQL query statements and areas in the code where Oracle Multimedia and other Oracle object types and methods are used.

See Operations in the IMImagePanel Class, Operations in the IMAudioPanel Class, Operations in the IMVideoPanel Class, and Operations in the IMDocPanel Class for code examples of the corresponding m_jXxxPanel.display( ) methods, where Xxx represents the particular media data type, Img, Aud, Vid, or Doc.

5.2.2 Operations in the IMImagePanel Class

This class displays the image panel, the product photo and its attributes, and the thumbnail image, and lists for reading and writing metadata. What follows is a more detailed description of each of the methods that are defined and what each method does:

  • The display( ) method, which first calls the insertProperty( ) method, which calls the Oracle Multimedia image object type methods getMimeType( ), getHeight( ), getWidth( ), and getContentlength( ) to get the attributes of the image to display in a table, and lays out the user interface components for reading and writing image metadata.

  • For supported formats, the class displays the product photo thumbnail image, which is generated by calling the IMUtil.generateThumbnail( )method to create the thumbnail image from the product photo.

  • The addThumbnail( ) method to show the new thumbnail image.

  • The changeThumbnail( ) method to change the thumbnail image.

  • The saveToFile( ) method to save the photo to a file.

  • The deleteMedia( ) method to delete the product photo image and its thumbnail image from the database by setting the image object type columns to empty using the OrdImage.init( ) method.

  • The play( ) media method to show the image using a media player.

  • The setMedia( ) method to set the photo and thumbnail object.

  • The notExist( ) method checks whether the image data exists and returns true if the BLOB is empty or is not associated with an existing BFILE; otherwise, it returns false.

  • The getDataInByteArray( ) method retrieves image data into a byte array by calling the Oracle Multimedia importData( ) method first for the BFILE and returns the results of calling the Oracle Multimedia getDataInByteArray( ) method.

  • The refreshPanel( ) method refreshes the display when updating the photo image, attributes, and thumbnail image.

  • The getFirstFocusComponent( ) method enforces the correct focus order.

  • The emptyPanel( ) method clears the icon and attribute panel.

  • The showMetadata( ) method to pop up a window for displaying metadata for the selected type.

  • The writeMetadata( ) method to display the write metadata dialog.

The following code example includes the display( ), insertProperty( ), notExist( ), getDataInByteArray( ), and refreshPanel( ) methods, and highlights in bold any SQL query statements and areas in the code where Oracle Multimedia and other Oracle object types and methods are used:

void display() throws IOException, SQLException

      // If image exists, try to show the attributes.
      if (insertProperty())
      {
        // Show the thumbnail image.
        // If the thumbnail image does not exist, generate it first.
        if (m_imgThumb != null)

5.2.8 Operations in the IMLoadFile Class

This class loads a media stream from a file to a database for each of the media object types. First, it checks whether this PRODUCT_ID column exists in the PM.ONLINE_MEDIA table and if not, it inserts a new row into the table. Then, it creates and initializes a new media object for each media object type, updates the media data, that is, loads it into the database if it is not already stored there, and finally, sets the media attributes for each media data object.

In this class, the IMFileLoad( ) method calls the initFileChooser( ) method, then the initFileChooser( ) method calls the loadNewMedia( ) method, which does the row insertion and initializing of the media object type columns, and then calls the updateMedia( ) method to update the media and to set the media attributes.

The following code example includes the loadNewMedia( ) and UpdateMedia( ) methods, and highlights in bold any SQL query statements and areas in the code where Oracle Multimedia and other Oracle object types and methods are used as previously described:
