I have a simple table description for storing files. I store the files in
the "contents" column. I also have a simple RDBO class that autoinitializes
from the database. The output of the meta->perl_class_definition is given
below the table definition. Why is the type for "contents" a scalar? I
would like to store binary data in that column, which I can do with straight
DBI, but it seems I have to specify the bind_type as DBD::Pg::PG_BYTEA. I
have tried storing the same binary data using RDBO and do not get the
correct information stored. I wonder if the binding is correct? Any ideas
on how to fix the problem?
Thanks,
Sean
