It is possible to extend the size of the columns XWS_VALUE in the table xwikistrings in the MySQL database.

I've run in some cases where a bigger field is necessary without wanting to move to a TextArea. I think it could make sense that we make this field bigger in the xwiki hibernate mapping

Hi,

The string property is limited to 255 chars, you must
use text-area property.

Take look
at 
\xwiki-enterprise-jetty-hsqldb-2.0.2\webapps\xwiki\WEB-INF\lib\xwiki-core-xx.jar
xwiki.hbm.xml
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  <joined-subclass name="com.xpn.xwiki.objects.StringProperty"
table="xwikistrings">
             <key>
                 <column name="XWS_ID"  />
                 <column name="XWS_NAME"  />
             </key>
             <property name="value" type="string">
                 <column name="XWS_VALUE" *length="255"* />
             </property>
         </joined-subclass>

Hi devs,

I have a serious problem. I'm using a fresh XE 2.6 with MySql (fresh db
+ XE 2.6 XAR import) and I'm doing this:

1. Create a class Main.TestClass with only one property (say "city") of
type "String".
2. Add an object of type Main.TestClass to Main.TestClass page and set
the value of "city" to a large string (say 270 characters).
3. Save.

I get:

----------8<----------
org.hibernate.exception.DataException: could not insert:
[com.xpn.xwiki.objects.StringProperty]
...
Caused by: com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlDataTruncation: Data truncation: Data too
long for column 'XWS_VALUE' at row 1
---------->8----------

IMO "Data too long" should be only a warning. Why isn't the string
simply truncated if it's too long?

If I go back to the object editor the value of the "city" property is
empty. If I try to set the value to a short string, say "Paris" and then
save, I get:

----------8<----------
Failed to commit or rollback transaction. Root cause []
...
Wrapped Exception:

org.hibernate.StaleObjectStateException: Row was updated or deleted by
another transaction (or unsaved-value mapping was incorrect):
[com.xpn.xwiki.objects.StringProperty#<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>

<city>Paris</city>
]
---------->8----------

So how can I fix this? If I delete the object and then create a new one,
setting the value of "city" to "Rome" I get the same exception as
before, but with:

<city>Rome</city>

Is this related to my configuration?

Thanks,
Marius
