Postgresql v6.5.2 - postgresql.jar
The ResultSet metadata function getColumnDisplaySize() is returning the number of characters in the column's name.
I don't THINK SO.....
1. The JavaDocs say it's supposed to be the "the column's normal max width in chars". I take this as the DATA width,
not
the name width. After all:
2. It REALLY screws up Symantec's wizard-generated code when a column named "foo" is loaded with a 25-character street
address. An uncaught exception is thrown saying the column is only 3 characters wide.
3. If I actually wanted to know that, I could just use the length function on the getColumnName() string.
