I am not sure what I am noticing is the intended behavior of MySql. I created
my table with CHAR(15) data types. When I describe the table, it appears as
VARCHAR(15) ..
Here are the statements -
alter table mytable add (loc char(15));
Query OK, 1 row affected, 1 warning (0.02 sec)
Records: 1
This is documented in the manual
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Silent_column_changes.html.
