> DatabaseMetadata.getColumns() returns bad COLUMN_SIZE value for varchar and varbinary columns. Specifically, for the following table:
> CREATE TABLE SERGIO (I INTEGER, V10 VARCHAR(10),
> VHUGE VARCHAR(2147483647), V VARCHAR, VB10 VARBINARY(10), VBHUGE VARBINARY(2147483647), VB VARBINARY) ;
> 1. COLUMN_SIZE is NULL for all varbinary columns, no matter the defined size. This should return the max possible size of the column, so:
> COLUMN_SIZE should return 10 for column VB10,
> COLUMN_SIZE should return 2147483647 for column VBHUGE,
> COLUMN_SIZE should return 2147483647 for column VB, assuming that a column defined with no size should default to the maximum size.
> 2. COLUMN_SIZE returns NULL for all varchar columns that are not defined with a size, like in column V in the above CREATE TABLE. I would think that a VARCHAR column defined with no size parameter should default to the maximum size possible (2147483647) for COLUMN_SIZE,  not to NULL.
