Hello list,
maybe I am missing something. Look at this:
CREATE TABLE test (name character(10));
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('test');
SELECT '<' || name || '>' FROM test;
?column?
----------
<test>
SELECT length(name), name from test;
length | name
--------+------------
4 | test
Should not a char(10) insert 6 padding spaces? Or am I missing something
like an update in the SQL standard?
Sorry if this is an already known issue, I had no time lately to check the
bugs mailing list.
Ciao,
Stefano
