Instance Method Details

#char_sizeObject

returns the column character length which is the number of characters allowed in the column. It is the counterpart of OCI8::Metadata::Column#data_size which gets the byte length.

# File 'lib/oci8/metadata.rb', line 1346

def char_size
  attr_get_ub2(OCI_ATTR_CHAR_SIZE)
end

#char_used?Boolean

returns the type of length semantics of the column.

:byte

byte-length semantics

:char

character-length semantics.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

end

#data_sizeObject

The maximum size of the column. This length is returned in bytes and not characters for strings and raws. This returns character length multiplied by NLS ratio for character-length semantics columns when using Oracle 9i or upper.

#type_nameObject

Returns a string which is the type name. The returned value will contain the type name if the datatype is :named_type or :ref. If the datatype is :named_type, the name of the named datatype’s type is returned. If the datatype is :ref, the type name of the named datatype pointed to by the REF is returned
