Mamta A. Satoor updated DERBY-4805:
-----------------------------------

    Description: 
Currently, whenever the client driver is used, there is a limit of 255 bytes 
for the database name. This is defined by the DRDA spec and there has been a 
discussion on the list [1]/[2] as to whether this limit should be raised due to 
the introduction of the new ACR that allows for UTF-8 characters.

UTF-8 characters can take up to four bytes and this reduces the limit in 
characters dramatically.

This should be an easy change as there is a codepoint that defines this limit.

[1] did not work but [2] did
