I'm ok with that! That I can make work! ;-)

one problem at a time! ;-)

Not sure which version of Oracle you were using however with 10g, that fails!
;-)
And I would vote that for Oracle, longText and varcharLarge are both CLOB.
(You'll notice that I'm completely ignoring the NCLOB questions... I'll leave
that for another time! ;-)
I've updated EntityMigration0.java by adding:
+#elseif ($attribute.javaClassName == "String" && $attribute.externalType ==
"CLOB")
+
${migrationTableName}.newLargeStringColumn("${attribute.columnName}",
${attribute.sqlGenerationAllowsNull});
and I've updated ERXSQLHelper$OracleSQLHelper by adding:
+ /**
+ * For Oracle, it seems the right thing to do for varcharLarge
is to use a CLOB column.
+ * CLOB is limited to 8TB where as VARCHAR is limited to 4000
bytes.
+ */
+ @Override
+ public int varcharLargeJDBCType() {
+ return Types.CLOB;
+ }
And that combination works for me!!
Any other thoughts from folks on this or can I put together the patch?
Thanks!
Mark.
