[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-1501) Derby 10 varchar limit is 32672

Jeff Schnitzer commented on HHH-1501:
-------------------------------------

A related issue is that if you have something like this:

	@Column(length=SOMELENGTH)
	byte[] stuff;

Then the DerbyDialect tries to create a "VARCHAR(SOMELENGTH) FOR BIT DATA" column, and SOMELENGTH cannot be particularly large of you get errors.

> One need to change DB2Dialect and DerbyDialect to create clob columns, if size of text > 32k:
>         registerColumnType(Types.CHAR, 254, "char(1)");
>         registerColumnType(Types.VARCHAR, 32672, "varchar($l)");
>         registerColumnType(Types.VARCHAR, Integer.MAX_VALUE, "clob($l)");
> (BTW, char limit is 254).
