Subject Does INSERT ... SELECT really copy blobs?
Author jaratulpas
Hello.

I am using the "INSERT INTO TABLE ... SELECT ..." construct to copy
rows within a table. Are blobs really copied in such case or is just a
new reference to the original blob created?

(I looked at the Firebird source and it seems that blobs are not
refcounted, which suggests that they are really copied.)

Thanks, J.T.
