[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-6815) ByteTest fails on SQL Server due to driver dropping negative sign due to TINYINT data type

[John Verhaeg (JIRA)]

    [ https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-6815?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=45506#comment-45506 ] 

John Verhaeg commented on HHH-6815:
-----------------------------------

The solution provided addresses the type range disconnect between the Java and Relational models in the description, but creates a new problem wrt existing TINYINT columns.  Created HHH-7060 to deal with this.

> The range for a TINYINT on SQL Server is 0-255, and because we're starting with a byte value, the driver automatically treats it as if it were updating a TINYINT column, even though the actual column being updated is a SMALLINT.
