Seeks position within a large object
bool pg_lo_seek ( resource $large_object, int $offset [, int $whence = PGSQL_SEEK_CUR ] )

pg_lo_seek() seeks a position within a large object resource.

To use the large object interface, it is necessary to enclose it within a transaction block.

Parameters:
large_object

PostgreSQL large object (LOB) resource, returned by pg_lo_open().

offset

The number of bytes to seek.

whence

One of the constants PGSQL_SEEK_SET (seek from object start), PGSQL_SEEK_CUR (seek from current position) or PGSQL_SEEK_END (seek from object end) .

Returns:

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Changelog:
5.6.0

Added PostgreSQL 9.3's 64bit large object support. Both client and server must support PostgreSQL 9.3 and PHP must be 64bit build to use 64bit large object.
