No, this is not a post about the exquisite music of Dead Can Dance. It's about getting trapped by some arcane "delights" of technology. It's about SQL CE and how to insert non-nullable BLOB data using my (apparently) tested code.
It fails. Yes, it fails. Works wonderfully when one assumes that BLOB columns are meant to be nullable (i.e., to accept null values). And then suddenly here comes a customer who thinks otherwise. He likes his NTEXT columns NOT NULL. Gosh: the whole thing crumbled.
If you are using my ATL OLE DB C++ code, heed these words of advice, so you can merrily trod in the garden of arcane delights.
By the way, DCD rocks (or rocked)...
