Error description
The user has a view defined in the Oracle database and the view expression which defines the view is over 5,000 characters long. When the user tries to import this view from the Connector Import Wizard using Oracle Connector, the import fails with the error message indicating that the fetched column value was truncated.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Users who are importing Oracle views through Oracle Connector **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When a view object in the database was defined through a view expression which contained more than 5,000 characters, the import operation for the view object would result in a truncation error. This was happening when the Connector Import Wizard was used to import the view definition, and Oracle Connector was selected to perform the metadata import. **************************************************************** RECOMMENDATION: Install Connector Rollup Patch 2 (CCRP2). This change is included in 8.1 Fix Pack 1. ****************************************************************
Problem conclusion
The connector was not using buffer large enough to read the viewexpression values when performing view metadata import. The codewas changed to ensure that the buffer is large enough to accept also the view expressions that are longer than 5,000 characters.
