#36804 [Fbk->Opn]: pdo_pgsql lobs problem

ID: 36804 User updated by: mauroi at digbang dot com Reported By: mauroi at digbang dot com -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Win XP SP2 PHP Version: 5.1.2 New Comment: Well, the page for the new method of pdo_pgsql (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pdo-pgsqllobcreate.php) could be. Just a note saying that "because the pdo driver only supports lobs using bytea fields, this function has been created". Or something like that (in a better english :) ). I've also added some comments in that function that might be good to include in the documentation. But that's another story. Thanks!

Maybe the appropiate note for the type of field that pdo_pgsql requires could be added. As a matter of fact, I didn't know if this is a PHP bug or not, because the documentation doesn't say anything. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-20 20:18:01] mauroi at digbang dot com Duplicated. Sorry ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-20 20:17:28] tony2001@php.net Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-20 20:13:41] mauroi at digbang dot com Description: ------------ I'm trying to insert a lob into a pgsql field. My first problem is that the documentation doesn't say if the table field should be a bytea or an oid (more suitable for a large object). I supposed both worked. I've tried with a bytea and it worked as expected. But the same operation with an OID field doesn't work. (Also, i've noticed three undocumented public methods in pdo_pgsql (pgsqlLOBUnlink, pgsqlLOBOpen, pgsqlLOBCreate)) Shouldn't it work with both methods??? At least, the quote function escapes always the lob as if it was a bytea. But in the rest of the driver it considers the possibility of an oid. Thanks in advance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36804&edit=1
