    Hi all.

    I have several days working with LargeObject and postgres 7.0.2 and
I have found many problems. In the first time the postgresql doc is
wrong, in chapter 58 of PosgreSQL tutorial (JDBC Interfaces) it repot
who to work with Large Object and give code that is wrong:

        File file = new File("myimage.gif");
        FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);
        PreparedStatement ps = conn.prepareStatement("insert into images
values (?,?)");
        ps.setString(1,file.getName());
        ps.setBinaryStream(2,fis,file.length());
        ps.executeUpdate();
        ps.close();
        fis.close();

        PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement("select oid from
images where name=?");
        ps.setString(1,"myimage.gif");
        ResultSet rs = ps.executeQuery();
        if(rs!=null) {
            while(rs.next()) {
                InputStream is = rs.getBinaryInputStream(1);
                // use the stream in some way here
                is.close();
                }
            rs.close();
        }
        ps.close();


        InputStream ARE NOT SUPPORTED in JDBC implementation ¡¿?¡ and
"getBinaryInputStream()" really is "getBinaryStream()".  I think that it
is very serious. The other method (that I know) is using LargeObjectAPI,
but this fail every 9 times of PreparedStatement of setObject() sentence
¡¡¡ and when use LargeObjectManager as in source examples. (I send other
messages to list)


        Has PostgreSQL any way to work WELL with LargeObject.?

    Please reply me.

    Cheers, Gabi.
