Casting to a CLOB value does not truncate.
------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-786
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-786
Project: Derby
Type: Bug
Components: SQL
Versions: 10.1.2.1
Reporter: Daniel John Debrunner
Assigned to: Daniel John Debrunner
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 10.2.0.0
ij> values cast(cast ('123456' as varchar(5)) as varchar(10));
1
----------
12345
1 row selected
ij> values cast(cast ('123456' as clob(5)) as varchar(10));
1
----------
123456
I think caused by CLOB not returning true for TypeId.variableLength() not
returning true for CLOB.
Comments in code indicate some confusion, will add comments indicating the
method is for types where
the length is application defined. Will also remove XML as a variable type.
