>             Project: Derby
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: SQL
>    Affects Versions: 10.4.1.3
>            Reporter: Rick Hillegas
>         Attachments: BigStringMaker.java, bigStrings.sql

> I can create a static method which returns a long String and register this as 
> a function which returns LONG VARCHAR. I am able to invoke this function and 
> create a LONG VARCHAR value which is longer than the maximum length which 
> Derby allows for this datatype (32700 characters).
> It is not clear to me what is supposed to happen in this situation according 
> to the SQL standard. However, the current behavior seems wrong. Here are two 
> possible correct behaviors:
> 1) Raise an exception if the user-coded method violates the declared contract 
> of the CREATE FUNCTION statement.
> 2) Silently truncate the value returned by the user-coded method.
> There may be a similar problem with methods which return byte[] and which are 
> registered as functions returning (LONG) VARCHAR FOR BIT DATA. However, 
> experiments to test this are blocked by DERBY-3511.
> I will attach a test case demonstrating the problem.
