Chances just submitted Enhancement TRQS323 (with code to do it) will make it into the next RC?

[Greg Monroe <Gr...@DukeCE.com>]

I'm just about to start doing some major re-coding based on this issue
and 
wanted to bounce it off the developer list to see if anyone sees any
problems
that might delay it getting integrated.  (Some folks here will grumble
big time
if we're using customized 3rd party packages...)


Here's the Scarab info:

http://issues.apache.org/scarab/issues/id/TRQS323

Currently, all Column objects generated for in the om map don't have a
size set.
For most columns, this is not a big issue.  However, if you want to use
the OM 
for entry overflow checking, it would be nice to have this information
available.

Setting the size for all object types across all databases would be hard
(how 
do you represent 5,2?), but if we limit it to just character based
fields, it is 
easier.  Plus, this is the one field type people want the size of...

Attached to the Scarab issue is a new version of MapBuilder.vm that does

this.  It checks if the object type of the column is '""' and there is
an 
associated size (CLOB's don't have sizes).  If these condition are met,
it 
includes the size in the column creation code.

TIA
