Examples

Example #1 pg_lo_tell() example

<?php
   $doc_oid = 189762345;
   $database = pg_connect("dbname=jacarta");
   pg_query($database, "begin");
   $handle = pg_lo_open($database, $doc_oid, "r");
   // Skip first 50000 bytes
   pg_lo_seek($handle, 50000, PGSQL_SEEK_SET);
   // See how far we've skipped
   $offset = pg_lo_tell($handle);
   echo "Seek position is: $offset";
   pg_query($database, "commit");
?>
