This example unlinks a large object from the database before deleting the
row that references it. It uses the blobs table from the
Pdo\Pgsql::lobCreate() and
Pdo\Pgsql::lobOpen() examples.
<?php
$db = new Pdo\Pgsql('pgsql:dbname=test host=localhost', $user, $pass);
$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
$db->beginTransaction();
$db->lobUnlink($oid);
$stmt = $db->prepare("DELETE FROM BLOBS where ident = ?");
$stmt->execute([$some_id]);
$db->commit();
?>
