Identity comparisons

These operators compare the object identifiers of large objects. This has nothing to do with the objects' actual contents; use them only for keeping track of containers of references to large objects and such.

Detailed Description

Identity of a large object.

Deprecated:
Use the blob class instead.

Encapsulates the identity of a large object.

A largeobject must be accessed only from within a backend transaction, but the object's identity remains valid as long as the object exists.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ size_type

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ largeobject() [1/5]

pqxx::largeobject::largeobject ( )
defaultnoexcept

Refer to a nonexistent large object (similar to what a null pointer does).

◆ largeobject() [2/5]

PQXX_COLD pqxx::largeobject::largeobject ( dbtransaction t)
explicit

Create new large object.

Parameters
tBackend transaction in which the object is to be created.

References pqxx::transaction_base::conn(), pqxx::oid_none, and reason().

◆ largeobject() [3/5]

pqxx::largeobject::largeobject ( oid  o)
explicitnoexcept

Wrap object with given oid.

Convert combination of a transaction and object identifier into a large object identity. Does not affect the database.

Parameters
oObject identifier for the given object.

◆ largeobject() [4/5]

PQXX_COLD pqxx::largeobject::largeobject ( dbtransaction t,
std::string_view  file 
)

Import large object from a local file.

Creates a large object containing the data found in the given file.

Parameters
tBackend transaction in which the large object is to be created.
fileA filename on the client program's filesystem.

References pqxx::transaction_base::conn(), pqxx::oid_none, and reason().

◆ largeobject() [5/5]

PQXX_COLD pqxx::largeobject::largeobject ( largeobjectaccess const &  o)
noexcept

Take identity of an opened large object.

Copy identity of already opened large object. Note that this may be done as an implicit conversion.

Parameters
oAlready opened large object to copy identity from.

Member Function Documentation

◆ id()

oid pqxx::largeobject::id ( ) const
noexcept

Object identifier.

The number returned by this function identifies the large object in the database we're connected to (or oid_none is returned if we refer to the null object).

◆ operator!=()

bool pqxx::largeobject::operator!= ( largeobject const &  other) const

Compare object identities.

Warning
Only valid between large objects in the same database.

◆ operator<()

bool pqxx::largeobject::operator< ( largeobject const &  other) const

Compare object identities.

Warning
Only valid between large objects in the same database.

◆ operator<=()

bool pqxx::largeobject::operator<= ( largeobject const &  other) const

Compare object identities.

Warning
Only valid between large objects in the same database.

◆ operator==()

bool pqxx::largeobject::operator== ( largeobject const &  other) const

Compare object identities.

Warning
Only valid between large objects in the same database.

◆ operator>()

bool pqxx::largeobject::operator> ( largeobject const &  other) const

Compare object identities.

Warning
Only valid between large objects in the same database.

◆ operator>=()

bool pqxx::largeobject::operator>= ( largeobject const &  other) const

Compare object identities.

Warning
Only valid between large objects in the same database.

◆ raw_connection()

pqxx::internal::pq::PGconn *PQXX_COLD pqxx::largeobject::raw_connection ( dbtransaction const &  T)
staticprotected

◆ reason()

std::string PQXX_COLD pqxx::largeobject::reason ( connection const &  c,
int  err 
) const
protected

Referenced by largeobject().

◆ remove()

void PQXX_COLD pqxx::largeobject::remove ( dbtransaction t) const

Delete large object from database.

Unlike its low-level equivalent cunlink, this will throw an exception if deletion fails.

Parameters
tTransaction in which the object is to be deleted

References pqxx::oid_none.

◆ to_file()

void PQXX_COLD pqxx::largeobject::to_file ( dbtransaction t,
std::string_view  file 
) const

Export large object's contents to a local file.

Writes the data stored in the large object to the given file.

Parameters
tTransaction in which the object is to be accessed
fileA filename on the client's filesystem

References pqxx::transaction_base::conn(), and pqxx::oid_none.

Referenced by pqxx::largeobjectaccess::to_file().
