问题 Here is my predicament. Basically, I need a column in a table to hold up an unknown length of characters. But I was curious if in Sql Server performance problems could arise using a VARCHAR(MAX) or NVARCHAR(MAX) in a column, such as: 'This time' I only need to store 3 characters and most of the time I only need to store 10 characters. But there is a small chances that It could be up to a couple thousand characters in that column, or even possibly a million, It is unpredictable. But, I can

Inserting national characters into an oracle NCHAR or NVARCHAR column does not work

问题 When inserting strings in an oracle database, some national characters are replaced with question marks, even though they are inserted in an NCHAR or NVARCHAR column - that should be able to handle all Unicode characters. This happens using either Oracle's SQL Developer, sqlplus or using the JDBC driver. The database NLS_CHARACTERSET is set to WE8ISO8859P1 (western european iso-8859-1) The NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET used for NCHAR columns is set to AL16UTF16. (UTF-16) Any character not in the NLS

However, before SP execution, it's a literal varchar ("character string constant") without N

How BIG do you make your Nvarchar()

核能气质少年 提交于 2019-12-22 10:53:59
问题 When designing a database, what decisions do you consider when deciding how big your nvarchar should be. If i was to make an address table my gut reaction would be for address line 1 to be nvarchar(255) like an old access database. I have found using this has got me in bother with the old 'The string would be truncated'. I know that this can be prevented by limiting the input box but if a user really has a address line one that is over 255 this should be allowed. How big should I make my

Linq to SQL nvarchar problem

馋奶兔 提交于 2019-12-18 05:48:11
问题 I have discovered a huge performance problem in Linq to SQL. When selecting from a table using strings, the parameters passed to sql server are always nvarchar, even when the sql table is a varchar. This results in table scans instead of seeks, a massive performance issue. var q = ( from a in tbl where a.index == "TEST" select a) var qa = q.ToArray(); The parameter is passed through as a nvarchar, which results in the entire index being converted from varchar to nvarchar before being used. If

问题 IVe read a lot about this. Still some questions : Im not talking about case sensitive here... If I have a char ( ש for example) and he is stored in nvarchar - which can hold anything , Why would I need collation here ? If I'm "FaceBook" and i need the ability to store all chars from all languages , What is the relationship between the collation and my nvarchar columns ? Thanks in advance. 回答1: Storing and representing characters is one thing, and knowing how to sort and compare them is
