No, I fully agree with FPC devs that TFieldDef.Size should return exactly what the DDL scripts defined (eg: "create table MyTest( mystringfield varchar(10) )". SqlDB, DOA (Direct Oracle Access), IBX, dbExpress, FBLib, UIB etc all work exactly the same in this regard. tiOPF's unit tests prove this. It is just Zeos that seems broken. If Zeos wants to differentiate between field "character size" and "actual byte size requirement for storage", then they should introduce a new TFieldDef property (eg: .ByteSize) or something.
