Thanks Tom. I used to rely on the PQftype() to determine if the OIDs stored in that result field are pointing to large objects or not. If they are large objects, I used to fetch them using lo_* API. Now since PQftype() returns type oid for type lo columns, how will I identify if a result column contains large objects or not? One way I can think of is to use PQftable() and PQftablecol() and then query the type of the table column from pg_attribute. Would this be the correct way? Is there a better and easier way to identify the data to be lo?
Thanking you in advance.

This is an expected change: type "lo" isn't an independent datatype anymore, just a domain over OID. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: You can help support the PostgreSQL project by donating at http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate
