public abstract void setBlob (int parameterIndex, InputStream inputStream, long length) throws SQLException

Sets the designated parameter to a InputStream object. The Inputstream must contain the number of characters specified by length otherwise a SQLException will be generated when the PreparedStatement is executed. This method differs from the setBinaryStream (int, InputStream, int) method because it informs the driver that the parameter value should be sent to the server as a BLOB. When the setBinaryStream method is used, the driver may have to do extra work to determine whether the parameter data should be sent to the server as a LONGVARBINARY or a BLOB

Parameters:
parameterIndex    index of the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...
inputStream    An object that contains the data to set the parameter value to.
length    the number of bytes in the parameter data.

Exceptions:
SQLException    if parameterIndex does not correspond to a parameter marker in the SQL statement; if a database access error occurs; this method is called on a closed PreparedStatement; if the length specified is less than zero or if the number of bytes in the InputStream does not match the specified length.
SQLFeatureNotSupportedException    if the JDBC driver does not support this method
