[jira] [Commented] (OFBIZ-12021) "description" and "comment" datatypes unnecessarily limited to 255 char

Nicolas Malin (Jira)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-12021?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17201618#comment-17201618 ]

ddev commented on OFBIZ-12021:
------------------------------

Sure, I can do that no problem.  I've also changed "very-long" in mssql to "VARCHAR(MAX)" instead of "TEXT".

Posting a new diff. 

What's the preferred way of giving patches?  All I did to create my attachement was to type "git diff".

> "description" and "comment" fields are restricted to 255 char.  However after some research I found that all the supported databases support longer then 255 char
> I would expect users to want to write more then 255 char in a comment (I know I personally can).
> I have included diff of my proposed solution as a attachment  (I am unfamiliar with the procedures for submitting patches here)
