Note: Java 8 has reached end of support on January 31, 2024. Your existing Java 8 applications will continue to run and receive traffic. However, App Engine might block re-deployment of applications that use runtimes after their end of support date. We recommend that you migrate to the latest supported version of Java.

BlobInfoFactory (Google App Engine API for Java)

java.lang.Object
- com.google.appengine.api.blobstore.BlobInfoFactory

```
public class BlobInfoFactory
extends java.lang.Object
```
BlobInfoFactory provides a trivial interface for retrieving BlobInfo metadata.
BlobInfo metadata is stored in read-only __BlobInfo__ entities in the datastore. This class provides an easy way to access these entities. For more complex queries, you can use the datastore directly.

    Creates a BlobInfoFactory with the specified implementation of DatastoreService.
- Method Detail
  - loadBlobInfo
```
public BlobInfo loadBlobInfo(BlobKey blobKey)
```
    Loads the BlobInfo metadata for blobKey. Returns null if no matching blob is found.
  - queryBlobInfos
```
public java.util.Iterator<BlobInfo> queryBlobInfos()
```
    Queries for BlobInfo instances, beginning with the BlobKey that appears first in lexicographic order.
  - queryBlobInfosAfter
```
public java.util.Iterator<BlobInfo> queryBlobInfosAfter(BlobKey previousBlob)
```
    Queries for BlobInfo instances, beginning at the blob following previousBlob in lexicographic order. If previousBlob is null, the first blob will be returned.
    This is useful for displaying discrete pages of blobs.
  - createBlobInfo
```
public BlobInfo createBlobInfo(Entity entity)
```
    Creates a BlobInfo by extracting content from the specified Entity.
