There is no TEXT type yet and it would be good to add the type.
Also there are two issues to be improved for VARCHAR:
(A) The current varchar is restricted to be within a storage block, i.e.
2MB by default configuration.
(B) For varchar with relative large size (e.g. varchar(8192)), a storage
bloc
Varchar(MAX)/TEXT is a construct that lets you put in an arbitrary
amount of text into the string with no defined upper limit unlike
varchar(#) where # is the character limit. It's a small technical
limitation to a project I'm working on if we don't have it but it's easy
enough to work around,
I've used varchar successfully in Quickstep, but I don't know what
functions are supported. Is there specific functionality you're looking
for?
Ex. "CREATE TABLE Child (a int, b int, c varchar(20));"

Hello,
Does Quickstep currently have support for arbitrary-length BLOB format
varchars? Think TEXT or varchar(MAX) from SQL Server.
