[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-4539) Make UPPER and LOWER work on MS SQL Server text and ntext columns

[Sergiu Dumitriu (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-4539?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=37338#action_37338 ] 

Sergiu Dumitriu commented on HHH-4539:
--------------------------------------

Well, this is what Hibernate uses to automatically create the tables based on the mapping, and the mapping only specifies a "string" property.

> Trying to use UPPER or LOWER on a text column results in:
> ERROR util.JDBCExceptionReporter - Argument data type text is invalid for argument 1 of upper function.
> http://databases.aspfaq.com/database/why-do-i-get-argument-data-type-text-is-invalid-for-argument.html suggests a workaround, which I think should be automatically used by Hibernate, so that the HQL query can work with other dialects.
