String default value if not set?

[Parikhharshal]

Hi there

For one of the columns I have not set any length for type String. I was hoping it could take max ie 65536 but instead it takes 256 length.

Does it mean that in Talend I have to explicitly mention 65536 length too?

Thanks

Harshal.

Hi Harshal,

      I was able to transmit a string data of length 1000 characters (generated from a trowgenerator) through a tmap where I had not mentioned any length in schema.

So Talend is not limiting the string length to 256 characters.

Could you please mark the topic as resolved if the answer has helped you? Kudos are also welcome 🙂

Hi Nikhil

When I was creating table I had to explicitly specify length, otherwise it was taking 256 as default one.

In this job, first component creates table for me. Wherein I had to explicitly specify 65535 else it was taking 256 as a default one.
