Be aware when you modify a lo with pg_lowrite() to remove first the old one : if the new lo is smaller than the one before, it only overwrite the begining and you keep the end of the old lo (open with "w" parameter, PHP 4.04 Linux RH).
(PHP 4 >= 4.2.0, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
pg_lo_write — Write to a large object
pg_lo_write() writes data into a large object at the current seek position.
To use the large object interface, it is necessary to enclose it within a transaction block.
Зауваження:
This function used to be called pg_lowrite().
lobПримірник PgSql\Lob, якого повертає pg_lo_open().
data
The data to be written to the large object. If length is
an int and is less than the length of data, only
length bytes will be written.
length
An optional maximum number of bytes to write. Must be greater than zero
and no greater than the length of data. Defaults to
the length of data.
The number of bytes written to the large object, or false on error.

Приклад #1 pg_lo_write() example
<?php
$doc_oid = 189762345;
$data = "This will overwrite the start of the large object.";
$database = pg_connect("dbname=jacarta");
pg_query($database, "begin");
$handle = pg_lo_open($database, $doc_oid, "w");
$data = pg_lo_write($handle, $data);
pg_query($database, "commit");
?>Be aware when you modify a lo with pg_lowrite() to remove first the old one : if the new lo is smaller than the one before, it only overwrite the begining and you keep the end of the old lo (open with "w" parameter, PHP 4.04 Linux RH).Using php 4.3.0 and PostgreSQL 7.3.1
I can write a simple script in which pg_lo_write seems to always return 1 and not the number of bytes written, as evidenced by extracting the data through another means.
Further more, I can make this pg_lo_write fail, or at least fail to write all the data it's pretty difficult to tell without the number of bytes written being returned, and not return the false value. In addition to this, the lo resource has been adjusted so that the oid it contains is 0.
Unfortunately, I do not know what exactly the failure mode is, it does seem to be in the ip network communication side of PostgreSQL, which is odd since the unix domain comms works fine for this. However, it would have been useful to have the pg_lo_write() function return as advertised, it would have saved some of the 2 man hours me and the dev. team put into diagnosing this problem.
