Thread: what data type should i use in MySql for a java object to be saved

i really dont know how to ask this properly. but what database data type should i use if im going to save a java object

consider this Person class

public class Person  implements java.io.Serializable {
 
    private String fName;
    private String mName;
    private String lName;
    private int age;
 
    public Person(String f, String m, String l, int age) {
 
        fName = f;
        mName = m;
        lName = l;
        this.age = age;
    }
 
    public String getFName() {
 
        return fName;
    }
 
    public String getMName() {
 
        return mName;
    }
 
    public String getLName() {
 
        return lName;
    }
 
    public int getAge() {
 
        return age;
    }
}

As I know, there is no data type in mysql for object, but you can create a special table for the object. e.g., you can create a table of person for the person object.

thank you for all the responses, yes i found out that BLOB type is the type that MySql can handle regarding with java objects
