It may be as simple as making sure that:
bytea_output = escape
is present in postgresql.conf
9.0 changed the default to hex
No idea on the Table/Query aspect but at least in JDBC query parameters are
generic (i.e., "?") and you tell the API what type of value is being sent -
letting the API do the appropriate conversions. Occasionally putting an
explicit cast on the parameter (i.e., ?::int) can be handy if you are
dealing with, say, strings in code but the parameter needs to be something
else.
If necessary you could decode your image into some textual representation
and then encode into back into binary once it is in the server (using
appropriate PostgreSQL functions).
