> Incremental UPDATE STATS fails on long varchar values
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TRAFODION-2576
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRAFODION-2576
> Project: Apache Trafodion
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: sql-cmp
> Environment: All
> Reporter: David Wayne Birdsall
> Assignee: David Wayne Birdsall
>
> The following test script demonstrates the problem:
> -- This script creates a table with varchar values longer than 256 characters.
> -- It tnen demonstrates issues with incremental stats on such values.
> ?section setup
> drop table if exists testbigcol;
> create table testbigcol
> ( a int not null,
> b varchar(500),
> primary key (a) )
> salt using 4 partitions;
> insert into testbigcol values (1,'axq'),(2,'bxw');
> insert into testbigcol select x.a + 2 * y.a, x.b || y.b from testbigcol x
> cross join testbigcol y;
> insert into testbigcol select x.a + 6 * y.a, x.b || y.b from testbigcol x
> cross join testbigcol y;
> insert into testbigcol select x.a + 42 * y.a, x.b || y.b from testbigcol x
> cross join testbigcol y;
