Class TypeQualifiers

java.lang.Object

net.java.ao.types.TypeQualifiers

public class TypeQualifiers
extends java.lang.Object

Describes optional modifiers to a type: string length for string types, precision and scale for numeric types. Each TypeInfo may have default qualifiers set by the database provider; qualifiers may also be modified by annotations.

Field Summary

Fields

Modifier and Type	Field and Description
static int	MAX_STRING_LENGTH Maximum string length (for strings of limited length) cannot be set to greater than this value.
static int	OLD_MAX_STRING_LENGTH String sizes were tuned down due to a SQL server limitation, this has the undesired side effect that existing tables read with lengths between 450 and 767 are incorrectly seen as clobs
static int	UNLIMITED_LENGTH If stringLength is set to this constant, the field is an unlimited-length string (TEXT, CLOB, or LONG VARCHAR).

Method Summary

Field Detail

MAX_STRING_LENGTH

public static final int MAX_STRING_LENGTH

Maximum string length (for strings of limited length) cannot be set to greater than this value. This is the lowest common denominator for maximum string length in all supported databases.

Constant Field Values

OLD_MAX_STRING_LENGTH

public static final int OLD_MAX_STRING_LENGTH

String sizes were tuned down due to a SQL server limitation, this has the undesired side effect that existing tables read with lengths between 450 and 767 are incorrectly seen as clobs

Constant Field Values

UNLIMITED_LENGTH

public static final int UNLIMITED_LENGTH

If stringLength is set to this constant, the field is an unlimited-length string (TEXT, CLOB, or LONG VARCHAR).
