I am using C++ and trying to programatically import a large object
from the client side into a server. I am using QT and, for the server
side I can pass a command like:
insert into x values('x1',lo_import('c:/temp/x1.txt'));
Which works.
However this will not work from the client side.
For the client side there is a psql function \lo_import that works if
I run psql and do something like:
\lo_import('c:/temp/x1.txt')
insert into x values('x1',:LASTOID);
I understand the function \lo_import first sends the data to the
server and then creates the blob returning the oid of it.
How can I do this in an SQL query?
Do I have to write a function on the server in psql using commands like
\lo_import('c:/temp/x1.txt')
insert into x values('x1',:LASTOID);
and then call this in an sql statement?
Will this work or what do people usually do?
Thanks for any help
Andrew
