Обсуждение: ???Varchar()

I have listened that through new Postgresql 7.2.2 version there is also
the capability of declaring a varchar type without declaring the maximum
number of storage e.g. create table A(att0 varchar(16)). Is is true?If
it's how is declared beacuse i can't manage it. Specifically i can't
declare create table A(att0 varchar()). Does anyone have any idea about
the subject.Thanks you !

How about:

create table A(att0 text);

The length limit is something like 2TB or some such.

Do it like this:

create table a (b varchar);

In this usage, varchar is pretty much an alias for text, but some database
front ends find it easier to accept type varchar than text.
