Thread: Unified setBlobs / setBinaryStream question

Unified setBlobs / setBinaryStream question

From

Hello,

  At the old JDBC driver documentation there is a string about moving set/getBlob to use BYTEA type:

Note: In a future release of the JDBC Driver, the getBLOB() and setBLOB() methods may no longer interact with Large Objects and will instead work on bytea data types. So it is recommended that you use the LargeObject API if you intend to use Large Objects.

  At the recent JDBC driver documentation this line is absent. Does it mean that roadmap plans are changed?

There are no current plans to change get/setBlob to work on bytea.
