Michael Moser commented on NIFI-3389:
-------------------------------------
Are there any other uses of the STRING schema type that may be affected by this
65535 byte limit? I'm really worried about thinking "that will never happen"
and then someone finds a way to make it happen. I think we need to seriously
consider using LONG_STRING in all but the most obvious cases where a 65535 byte
STRING type is enough.
> FlowFileSchema writes attribute name and value as STRING instead of
> LONG_STRING

> Key: NIFI-3389
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3389
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0
> Reporter: Bryan Rosander
> Assignee: Bryan Rosander
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: regression
>
> This causes errors when the names or values of attributes exceeds 65535 bytes
> when encoded as UTF-8.
> The fix would be pretty trivial but it has backwards compatibility
> implications and the schema will need to be versioned to still be able to
> read old flow files.
