MaxDB is trimming the trailing spaces
While inserting on (VAR)CHAR columns.
See the following experiment:
create table test (x varchar(20));
insert into test values (' kkq ');
select length(x) from test;
This will show a length of 5.
This occurs when connecting with odbc as well as jdbc.
We are having porting problems because Oracle and DB2 for example
do not trim trailing spaces.
Are there any parameters (server or driver) to alter this behavior
to preserving the trailing spaces?
