Mamta A. Satoor updated DERBY-5407:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: SystemCatalogTest.java
I have added a new test fixture
testColumnDatatypesOfAllDataTypesInSystemCatalogs to SystemCatalogTest.java
This new fixture creates a table with all the datatypes and check
syscolumns.columndatatype to make sure that we get the correct datatype back
for those columns in both network server and embedded modes. As expected,
because of DERBY-5407, the datatypes returned for VARCHAR FOR BIT DATA is not
the same for the 2 modes. Additionally, CAHR FOR BIT DATA also does not match
for the 2 modes. Once we fix the underlying issue, we should be able to check
in this test with the fix for the issue.
> When run across the network, dblook produces unusable DDL for VARCHAR FOR BIT
> DATA columns.

> In private correspondence, Mani Afschar Yazdi reports that dblook omits the
> length specification for VARCHAR FOR BIT DATA columns when run across the
> network. Embedded dblook runs fine. I can reproduce this problem as follows:
> 1) Bring up a server (here I am using port 8246).
> 2) Create a database with the following ij script:
> connect 'jdbc:derby://localhost:8246/memory:db;create=true';
> create table t( a varchar( 20 ) for bit data );
> 3) Now run dblook across the network:
> java -org.apache.derby.tools.dblook -d "jdbc:derby://localhost:8246/memory:db"
> This produces the following DDL for the table:
> CREATE TABLE "APP"."T" ("A" VARCHAR () FOR BIT DATA);
> A similar experiment using an embedded database produces usable DDL which
> includes a length specification for the VARCHAR FOR BIT DATA column.
