Re: pgAdmin3 feature freeze?

Hi Andreas.

I am sorry that my response is dull...

I thought how pgadmin3 should handle LargeObject.
There is the following three approach with pgsql-7.3 as the way of handling
it.

1) It has the one related to the reference with column-OID.
Then, the actual condition is pg_lageobject.
This suggests the standard use of psql.

2) It has the one related to the reference with column-lo.
column data by the definition of Type-lo
This has been the property of the way of using it since the old days of
ODBC-Driver.

3) It goes into column-bytea directly.
This makes use with new ODBC possible.

It thinks that it has a headache.
Is there any thought?

-------------------------------------------------------
Though a topic strays, Dave.
Usage Version7.3 following with ODBC.

CREATE FUNCTION lo_in(cstring)
RETURNS lo
AS 'int4in'
LANGUAGE 'internal' WITH (ISCACHABLE, ISSTRICT);

CREATE FUNCTION lo_out(lo)
RETURNS cstring
AS 'int4out'
LANGUAGE 'internal' WITH (ISCACHABLE, ISSTRICT);

CREATE TYPE lo (
internallength = 4,
externallength=10,
input = lo_in,
output = lo_out,
alignment = int4,
default = '',
passedbyvalue
);

And Cast is necessary to begin to lead OID.

CREATE CAST (lo AS oid) WITHOUT FUNCTION;
