> *CAST**('abcdfe' AS CHAR(3))* should trim the string to 3 chars but currently returns the whole string *'abcdfe'*.
>  
> PostgreSQL and Oracle for example behave as such:
> postgres=# select '123456afas'::char(4);
>  bpchar 
>  --------
>  1234
>  (1 row)
> postgres=# select '123456afas'::varchar(5);
>  varchar 
>  ---------
>  12345
>  (1 row)
