How to save finger print template created by Digital Persona into mysql database

[Riaz Ali]

I am using Digital Persona One Touch SDK to create finger print based authenticating application in Java. There is a sample application (and code) given with it, when I installed it I could run that. It creates Template and Verifies correctly. But actually I want to save the finger print template data into MySql database and then retrieve that from database and compare while verifying.

So is there any way or technique to store the template data in mysql database and then retrieve it.
Kindly reply whoever knows any thing I am in a great need of it.

Thanks and Best regards

What is the Template?
Is it a file?
If so you can simply stream it to a BLOB in the database.

Actually template is not a file (means not saved on Hard Disk), it is collection of Sample Features (Samples of finger print captured by device) and it is object of DPFPTemplate class of the SDK API given with deivce.

Does it provide a way of saving it?
I would expect so since they can't expect you to have to make a Template each time you turn the system on...
