             Summary: Ensure CHAR type meets SQL standard
                 Key: PHOENIX-1145
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-1145
             Project: Phoenix
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: James Taylor


Phoenix pads CHAR type values with space characters. This can lead to odd 
results if a character smaller than a space is used. In addition, our 
comparison logic ignores trailing spaces, but there may be issues with this 
approach. See this Postgres thread: 
http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/String-comparison-and-the-SQL-standard-td5740721.html

In addition, CHAR only supports single byte characters as we assume that each 
CHAR is a one byte to calculate offsets.

We should investigate making CHAR more conformant.
