Description:
------------
Using mysqli in combination with the prepare-method and bind_param
leads to troubles with the BLOB-field. I'm not really sure if it is a
bug or I just thinking the wrong way.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$m = new mysqli( "host, "user", "pass" );
$m->select_db( "my_db" );
if( $statement = $m->prepare( "INSERT INTO my_table SET my_blob = ?"
))
{
$file = file_get_contents( "image.png" );
$statement->bind_param( 'b', $file );
$statement->execute();
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Image should be inserted as binary data into the MySQL-table.
Actual result:
--------------
This does not work, it just puts zero bytes into the database. If I
change $statement->bind_param( 'b', $file ); to $statement->bind_param(
's', $file ); it works as expected
