Accessing Smart Large Objects
A smart large object is a large object that is stored in an sbspace on disk and is recoverable. You obtain the location of the smart large object on disk through an
LO
handle. With an
LO
handle, you can open a smart large object and obtain an
LO
file descriptor. The
LO
file descriptor allows you to access a smart large object with read, write, and seek operations similar to an operating-system file. You can also obtain status information about the smart large object.
For more information on how to access smart large objects through a DataBlade routine, see
Chapter 3, "Handling Smart Large Objects."
