------------------------------------
Attachment: BinaryDatatype.docx
> Add support for BINARY/VARBINARY datatype to Trafodion
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TRAFODION-3157
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRAFODION-3157
> Project: Apache Trafodion
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Anoop Sharma
> Assignee: Anoop Sharma
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: BinaryDatatype.docx
>
>
> Binary datatype contains sequence of bytes that can consist of arbitrary
> patterns. It is useful in cases where arbitrary patterns need to be stored
> and retrieved without associating any datatype specific semantics like
> character set, numeric interpretation, etc with it.
> Currently, the existing datatype that is somewhat close to BINARY is ISO
> VARCHAR. But it is not really binary as it follows character semantics.
> This Jira is filed to add support for true binary datatype in Trafodion.
> Detailed spec with syntax, semantics and operations on binary datatypes will
> be added to this jira.
