In 8.4, yes. In later versions, you'd need to do something about creating corresponding rows in pg_largeobject_metadata. In general, all built-in OID columns have mechanisms for choosing nonconflicting new values --- but in 9.0 and up, pg_largeobject_metadata is the authoritative store of "existing OIDs" for blobs, not pg_largeobject. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
