How can I directly view blobs in MySQL Workbench -
i'm using mysql workbench ce 5.2.30 ce / rev 6790 . when execute following statement:
select old_password("test") i nice blob icon, need left-click select cell, right-click , choose "open value in viewer" , select "text" tab.
using same phpmyadmin, directly value of old_password call. it's example, there way directly see such results in output?
in short:
- go edit > preferences
- choose sql editor
- under sql execution, check treat binary/varbinary nonbinary character string
- restart mysql workbench (you not prompted or informed of requirement).
with setting able concatenate fields without getting blobs.
i think applies versions 5.2.22 , later , result of this mysql bug.
disclaimer: don't know downside of setting - maybe when selecting binary/varbinary values see plain text may misleading and/or maybe hinder performance if large enough?
