| subject | [contrib #221] length of characterVarying | |||
| code |
created simple vendor class for H2, created table with name varchar. attempted select. |
|||
| what happened | threw type compatibility error on select -- dbc is pulling the length with resultset's metadata for display widt\ h. i don't think this is valid in general, and I'm not sure how you're supposed to get the maximum width. in th\ is case h2 is returning a display width of 10, which happens to be the long length string in the table. some dat\ abases now support varchar without a limit, and maybe that's the way that dbc should go to. |
|||
| what expected | display width should not be used as varchar limit for select. characterVarying should also support no limit, which is common these days. | |||
