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
