Objet: [GENERAL] insert BLOB
I'm relatively new to Postgres.
I'd like some help setting up a BLOB (binary large object) field to hold
images, and more importantly, inserting data (images) into it. We're using
version 6.5.1.
I tried this:
CREATE TABLE images (imagefield blob);
but I got an error, stating "Unable to locate type name 'blob' in catalog"
Probably a better way to accomplish the same thing is to store the graphics
in the file system, and then simply have a column that contains the location
(ie http://www.domain.com/images/image1.gif), but I'd still like to know how
to place the image itself directly into the database.
Thanks in advance for whatever help any of you can provide.
David
