No. NAMEDATALEN is 64 bytes, but the 64th byte is reserved for the null-terminator, so the string stored can be at most 63 bytes long. -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs |

Ok. But, it's described that NAMEDATALEN is 64 bytes in http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/s...reatetype.html. This conflict can confuse the user. So, should we unite the descriptions of the number of bytes for NAMEDATALEN? -- Fujii Masao NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATION NTT Open Source Software Center TEL (03)5860-5115 FAX (03)5463-5490 -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs |
