Thomas Dudziak resolved DDLUTILS-155.
-------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 1.0

I've changed this to use the CAST function instead (which has no problems with "LONG VARCHAR").

> I tried to update an existing database. Within the update the type of a column changed from CLOB to LONG VARCHAR. 
> This procedure failed because the SqlBuilder created the following statement
>         INSERT INTO LOGMESSAGES_ (MESSAGEID,MESSAGETEXT) 
>         SELECT MESSAGEID,LONG VARCHAR (MESSAGETEXT) FROM LOGMESSAGES
> which does not work on any database.
> I resolved this effect by simply replacing the blank in 'LONG VARCHAR' with an underscore (method Db2Builder.writeCastExpression(...)).
> The resulting statement contains a valid cast expression.
>         INSERT INTO LOGMESSAGES_ (MESSAGEID,MESSAGETEXT) 
>         SELECT MESSAGEID,LONG_VARCHAR (MESSAGETEXT) FROM LOGMESSAGES
