Even setBlob() method seems to be updating large object only partially. This is my code:
CREATE TABLE image (name TEXT, oid OID);
select * from image;
name | oid
-----------------+-------
bigfile | 17416
(1 rows)
//update the blob in the database
org.postgresql.jdbc3.Jdbc3Blob blob = new org.postgresql.jdbc3.Jdbc3Blob((org.postgresql.PGConnection)con, 17416);
InputStream is = new FileInputStream("/root/myfile");
byte[] bytes = new byte[128];
int n = 0, pos = 1;
while ((n = is.read(bytes)) >= 1) {
blob.setBytes(pos, bytes, 0, n);
pos = pos + n;
}
is.close();
PreparedStatement sst = con.prepareStatement("update image set oid = ? where name = ?");
sst.setString(2, "bigfile");
sst.setBlob(1, blob);
int count = sst.executeUpdate();
This updates only partially the existing blob. I want the file contents to be changed (from 1 Mb to 100 kb). Tell me if
thereis a way (without changing the OID of the large object).

See manual, http://jdbc.postgresql.org/documentation/84/binary-data.html:
" To use the Large Object functionality you can use either the
LargeObject class provided by the PostgreSQL™ JDBC driver, or by using
the getBLOB() and setBLOB() methods.
Important
You must access Large Objects within an SQL transaction block. You can
start a transaction block by calling setAutoCommit(false). "
