mi_large_object_map()

The mi_large_object_map() function, if it is called from the database server, maps a portion of a smart large object into the address space of the server process.

Syntax

Usage

The original object is not updated when the mapped region is written.

If called from the client, mi_large_object_map() performs an mi_large_object_readwithseek().

Use mi_large_object_unmap() to free this memory when it is no longer needed.

Return Values

On success, returns a pointer to the memory that contains the mapped data. On failure, returns NULL.
