Database.PostgreSQL.Simple.LargeObjects

Description

Support for PostgreSQL's Large Objects; see http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/largeobjects.html for more information.

Note that Large Object File Descriptors are only valid within a single database transaction, so if you are interested in using anything beyond loCreat, loCreate, and loUnlink, you will need to run the entire sequence of functions in a transaction. As loImport and loExport are simply C functions that call loCreat, loOpen, loRead, and loWrite, and do not perform any transaction handling themselves, they also need to be wrapped in an explicit transaction.
