[resolved] String VS Varchar?

Hi,
I have an tFileOutputDelimited file where all the columns are defined as Type STRING.
Now I'm documenting the record layout and have a question:
Is String the same data type as VARCHAR?
Thanks

Hi,
String is from java.lang.String. VARCHAR is usually used in DB.
String can be translated to "Varchar" in your data base.
