Обсуждение: Storing Photographs in Postgres?
Hi All, Is there a way to store photographs in postgres? I'm creating an employee master kind of thing, so i would like to store photos of my company employees also. If there is, is there a file size limitation or something? Regards, Raman.
That's what a BLOB type is invented for.
Cheers,
Dennis Fleurbaaij

TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster

Yes, although normaly it's a better design thing to keep them outside and have references to them. It depends on how you are accessing & using the data. There's an example Java app under /src/interfaces/jdbc. As for file size limit, in theory no. In practice, its a design issue for your application etc. Peter (7 days behind on emails :-( ) -- Peter Mount peter@retep.org.uk PostgreSQL JDBC Driver: http://www.retep.org.uk/postgres/ RetepPDF PDF library for Java: http://www.retep.org.uk/pdf/
