I'm reading the "Supported Features for Appeon Web" document and it says that bytea is an unsupported data type. We use that to store images in our application. Would there be a work-around for that, other than choosing a different DB? I had somehow not observed that when I decided to try porting our app to Postgres prior to trying a demo of Appeon Web.
I suppose we could use text (text blob) and do some sort of encoding and decoding to and from a text format for the storage of the images, but obviously that would be a bit of a pain. Is there some known standard PB code for doing that sort of encoding/decoding?
