| Hi ....... Pls tell me...how to do this? I have to import and export files from/to a database. Say i have a file named "sample" (assume some path) and i want to store it in to a database. I did this through lo_import function and i got the object id when i have used.....the following option. \lo_list ********* QUERY ********** SELECT loid as "ID", pg_catalog.obj_description(loid, 'pg_largeobject') as "Description" FROM (SELECT DISTINCT loid FROM pg_catalog.pg_largeobject) x ORDER BY "ID" Large objects ID | Description -------+------------- 58782 | 58783 | 58784 | But i want to know whether i can see the contents using this id on the database side.How can i view this? How to store this(object id) if i want to refer using file name(which we exported to db) Where can i see the file name in DB?Is there any possible way to store the names of the file in a database? What i thought is: While importing if there is possibility of storing the file name and Objid in to a table..and whenever if the user wants to export it from the db..by giving filename..we need to refer to that table and send the corresponding OBJID?Am i right Pls tell me how to do this? I need this as early as possible.Help me out in doing this.... Thank you, Sandhya |
