Large objects are not directly supported by ECPG, but ECPG
application can manipulate large objects through the libpq large
object functions, obtaining the necessary <code class="type">PGconn</code>
object by calling the <code class="function">ECPGget_PGconn()</code>
function. (However, use of
the <code class="function">ECPGget_PGconn()</code> function and touching
<code class="type">PGconn</code> objects directly should be done very carefully
and ideally not mixed with other ECPG database access calls.)
</p><p>
For more details about the <code class="function">ECPGget_PGconn()</code>, see
<a class="xref" href="ecpg-library.html" title="36.11. Library Functions">Section 36.11</a>. For information about the large
object function interface, see <a class="xref" href="largeobjects.html" title="Chapter 35. Large Objects">Chapter 35</a>.
</p><p>
Large object functions have to be called in a transaction block, so
when autocommit is off, <code class="command">BEGIN</code> commands have to
be issued explicitly.
</p><p>
<a class="xref" href="ecpg-lo.html#ECPG-LO-EXAMPLE" title="Example 36.2. ECPG Program Accessing Large Objects">Example 36.2</a> shows an example program that
illustrates how to create, write, and read a large object in an
ECPG application.
