Gabriel Steinberg created TEIID-3979: ---------------------------------------- Summary: Teiid generates queries containing VARCHAR without a size, causing an HSQL syntax error Key: TEIID-3979 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-3979 Project: Teiid Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 8.13.1 Reporter: Gabriel Steinberg Assignee: Steven Hawkins When running the following query through Teiid against an HSQL database: SELECT CAST(N_NATIONKEY AS VARCHAR(100)) FROM NATION Teiid drops the length from the query, sending to HSQL the query SELECT CAST(N_NATIONKEY AS VARCHAR) FROM NATION which causes an HSQL syntax error. HSQL doesn't support VARCHAR without length. Note: this query was generated by Tableau, and there's no easy way to change it to use the LFT function, as suggested by Steven in https://developer.jboss.org/thread/267816 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
