Greetings,
I posted this to the MySQL Newbie forum, but have not received a response. Any feedback would be appreciated.
-tb
Environment: mysql server v4.0.13 (Win2K) mysql client v5.0.0.0(Win2K)
In attempting to (manually) insert records with some rather lengthy strings, I pasted the insert statements into the client window; I wound up getting mismatched quotes, although the original statements that I copied were properly quoted.
After taking a closer look at what was happening, it appeared that the lines being pasted in were getting truncated at about 256 characters. I was able to eliminate most of the errors by splitting the insert statements across multiple lines (but wound up with newline characters mid-string in some of the values). Eventually, I wound up including the inserts in a perl script, which was successful
Is the apparent line length limit a restriction imposed by the client? (And does it apply if you are piping or redirecting output from another process or a file?)
Thanks in advance,
Ted
