RE: [INTERFACES] libpq, large Objects

blobtest is one of the JDBC large object examples. I think the libpq
equivalents are called something else.

I dont know what blobtest is.

However I was able to store LO data in a tuple using the lo_import
function.

Then in my program, I malloc'd a storage area and was able to read the
object into it.
It needs lo_tell to find out how big it is.

I don't need to do any random reads or write to LO's.
