Michael Dick updated OPENJPA-1841:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
Some databases do not support IS [NOT] NULL on all datatypes. 

For example Sybase does not allow it's clob / blob types (TEXT and IMAGE 
respectively) to be used with the IS NULL and IS NOT NULL clauses. The 
datalength() function to determine if the column has any data instead of the 
generic IS [NOT] NULL clause. 

Oracle has a similar restriction with BLOB / CLOB types. 

  was:
Sybase does not allow it's clob / blob types (TEXT and IMAGE respectively) to 
be used with the IS NULL and IS NOT NULL clauses. 

Instead we should use the datalength() function to determine if the column has 
any data. 

     Issue Type: Improvement  (was: Bug)
        Summary: Allow DBDictionary to optimize IS [NOT] NULL SQL for specific 
data types.  (was: Do not generate IS NULL and IS NOT NULL clause for blob / 
clob types on Sybase)
