Thanks alot for the reply Thomas.
Regarding your solution a) how can I check the length for the character
set
that Tourque Uses?
You misunderstood me. Not Torque uses a characterset, but the database
does. Check Your database manual for how to find out the characterset of
your database (usually this is configurable)
For solution b) how can I change the db character set?
Again, this needs to be changed in the database. Check the db manual.
Can we change the charset of db from any torque configuration files ?
Definitely not.
Thanks in advance...

There are fixed length character sets (each character uses the same
amount
of space, like ISO-8859-1 (1 byte) or unicode(2 bytes)) and variable
length
character sets where some characters neen more space than others (e.g.
utf-8 where characters can occupy 1-3 bytes). It seems that java and
the
db
use different character sets. The database or its driver takes care of
the
conversion, which can lead to a longer byte sequence in the db.
The solution would be a) to make the length check in the charset of the
db
or b) use the same charset in the db as in the web application.

Hellow everyone,
I am getting a strange problem. I am developing a webapplication in
IBM
Rational Software Development Platform Version: 6.0.1 Using Torque
Version
3.0.2.
I need to insert special characters like (ABCDEFG1234ÑãäåæçèéêêהЦБЌ)
into
an
Oracle(10g) Table Column of type VARCHAR2(4000 BYTE).
The Charset of web application is default IS0-8859. The value is saved
in
database and retrieved and displayed fine. But the problem arises on
boundry
value checks.
Now the string containing special characters of higher decimal ASCII
value
occupy more bytes then lower ASCII value. So the length of the string
is
different then the number of characters input by user.
Before inserting into database I validate the input value in the form
to
be
less then 4000 bytes (using myValue.length() ). It indeed shows value
less
then 4000 like in one case the length of the string is 3680. But when
torque
tries to insert the value in database the ORA Exception is encountered
org.apache.torque.TorqueException: Data size bigger than max size for
this
type: 4245
I am not able to understand why string length changes when torque
tries
to
insert it into the database.
Awaiting Response
Regards
SheraX
