Hmm~,  I see.  Seems we should provide a way to auto-detect how to store long string. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/556483#556483] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
