alter - Is it ALWAYS transparent to increase the size of a MYSQL column? -
it appears me if make column larger (i.e. varchar(255)
varchar(512)
) these kinds of changes transparent.
- existing data in column identical, ,
- selects , other mysql statement work same in either case, , require no changes?
it's valid assumption? i'm make field larger has data in (with alter
) , want sure after change, things function , appear (except after, can push in larger fields).
data remain same if column made larger (e.g. varchar(100)
varchar(200)
).
queries, such select
s should work expected, should consider relationships field has others, internally , externally.
is field displayed in external application set handle displaying n characters , expected handle n+x characters?
is field input query or procedure expecting field of length n not able handle length n+x?
