altre table and large object deletion

From
Jeremiah Jahn
Date:
will an alter table that removes an oid type also remove all of the
associated large objects. I've been using blobs but have converted to
byte arrays, now I need to get rid of all of the blobs. Will this be
enough? followed by a vaccum of course.
