Syntax

public abstract void setMaxFieldSize( int max ) throws SQLException

Parameters
  • max
    the new max column size limit; zero means unlimited
Description

The maxFieldSize limit (in bytes) is set to limit the size of data that can be returned for any column value; it only applies to BINARY, VARBINARY, LONGVARBINARY, CHAR, VARCHAR, and LONGVARCHAR fields. If the limit is exceeded, the excess data is silently discarded. For maximum portability use values greater than 256.

Exceptions

SQLException if a database-access error occurs.
