[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Created: (HHH-2244) Problem with data type 'Blob'

Problem with data type 'Blob' ----------------------------- Key: HHH-2244 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2244 Project: Hibernate3 Type: Bug Environment: Hibernate version:3.2 DB: postgresql 8.1 Reporter: Gulshanrai BABAJEE I have created a table in which I have a field of type BLOB which I store pictures. I insert a picture, note the oid generated. Then I do the following select statement on table 'pg_largeobject' (system table) : select * from pg_largeobject where loid = 'oid of my picture'. I found the oid. Then I update my picture. Its oid has been changed. I now make another select from table 'pg_largeobject' where loid = 'my OLD oid' and I was surprised to see that the old oid is STILL in the table. So I conclude that each time I update a picture from my table. The old oids are still there and eventually my database is increasing in size. Is this not a bug in hibernate? thanks in advance -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
