Handling of fixed-length datatypes is not handled consistently -------------------------------------------------------------- Key: TEIIDDES-2240 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIIDDES-2240 Project: Teiid Designer Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Import/Export Affects Versions: 8.5, 8.3.3 Reporter: Barry LaFond Assignee: Barry LaFond Fix For: 8.6, 8.5.1 Some data sources like Oracle & SQL Server allow *char* datatypes with length > 1. JDBC importer (via TEIIDDES-2061) converts d-type to *string* but changes the *char* to a *varchar* native type Teiid Connection importer will create a *char(10)* datatype if the column's datatype is *string(10)* and the native type is *char* In both instances, the datatype should end up being *string(10)* and the native type == *char*
