Seeing this on AIX 5.1 64 bit Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 with char datatypes. Anyone
aware of this issue?
CREATE TABLE CHAR_TEST
(
CHAR1 CHAR(1)
)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST_CHAR (
po_out OUT CHAR_TEST.CHAR1%TYPE -- this column is defined as CHAR(1)
)
IS
BEGIN
po_out := 'X';
-- The value assigned to po_out (in Oracle 9i instance) is an 'X' followed
by 199 spaces.
-- The value assigned to po_out (in Oracle 8i instance) is an 'X', no
spaces.
dbms_output.put_line('[BEGIN]-->' || po_out || '<--[END]');
-- In Oracle 9i, the following will cause the exception: "ORA-01401:
inserted value too large for column"
INSERT INTO CHAR_TEST (CHAR1)
VALUES (po_out);
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS
THEN
dbms_output.put_line('Error: ' || SQLERRM);
END;
