function DatabaseSchema_pgsql::queryTableInformation

Fetch the list of blobs and sequences used on a table.

We introspect the database to collect the information required by insert and update queries.

Parameters

$table_name: The non-prefixed name of the table.

Return value

An object with two member variables:

  • 'blob_fields' that lists all the blob fields in the table.
  • 'sequences' that lists the sequences used in that table.
