Hi & Help!

I would like to store some short binary data (encrypted). I used a
varchar(24) binary field for this.
But it seems that MySQL cuts white-spaces from the end when storing the
data in the table. When the encrypted string now has a white-space at
end, MySQL will cut it and this will result in a wrong decryption (next
time when the string is read and decrypted).

When using TinyBlob instead of varchar binary, all works fine. Is this a
"feature" of varchar binary? In my opinion, binary data shouldn't be
trimmed!

Please answer me via mail as I don't receive the mailing list.
Thanks for your support!
