Hi, why all filed in SQL command are translated as varchar(8000)?
Why a Text field in DataModeller is translated to "image" type when SQL command is executed?
What do you mean by "field in SQL command translated to Varchar(8000)?". Which SQL command? Aurelius doesn't create any field with size 8000. What it does when you don't specify the size of db column is to use the default value in global config, which is 255 by default, not 8000. Unless you have changed it.
About Text field, yes, that is by default, it's considered as a blob by Aurelius.

This is the prepare command in MSSQL.
Whan I upadte a Text field with Flush command I got an error: image is incompatible with text.
That is an issue with Data Modeler and SQL Server text fields. For now, you just manually change the generated properties for those fields from TBlob to string, and add a [Column] attribute specifying the size parameter with a value higher than 65535, this will tell Aurelius the field is a text large object, not binary.
I don't know about the varchar(8000) though, what is that, something from profiler?
Hi Wagner - this was a long ago topic but I found because in our Profiler I found all our REST calls in our TMS App Server were using varchar(8000) for all params. Has anything been learned since then that we could adjust to keep this from happening?
Thanks,
Rhett
HI @Rhett_Price, TMS Data Modeler now has the customization scripts feature which is great for such flexibility. You can simply create a script now that generates the Aurelius field with the type you want.
One option is still generate those fields as string with size 65536, or add an atribute [DBTypeWideMemo] to those properties so Aurelius know it's a memo field, not binary blob field.
