David Jencks commented on OPENJPA-221: -------------------------------------- I'm not in a position to easily modify the applications in question (they are in the tck) but if I only set storeCharsAsNumbers=false in code then I got a lot of openjpa unit test errors complaining that it couldn't create the table for AllFieldTypes, something about CHAR(255). changing the other property fixed that. If I turned off the unit tests then openjpa worked fine with preexisting derby tables with a CHAR column for the char field. Is this enough info? > DerbyDictionary doesn't describe a working mapping for char fields. > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OPENJPA-221 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-221 > Project: OpenJPA > Issue Type: Bug > Components: sql > Affects Versions: 0.9.7 > Reporter: David Jencks > Attachments: OPENJPA-221.patch > > > If a class has a char field mapped to CHAR or CHAR(1) in a derby database, > the derby dictionary sets up a mapping to an integer column which doesn't > work. openjpa tries to store e.g. the string "97" for the char 'a' which > results in a truncation error. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
