Namespace
YndigoBlue.Velocity.Model
Assembly
YndigoBlue.Velocity.dll

ReType(DataType, int)

Re-types this column to a compatible data type without marking it for a database schema update.

public void ReType(DataType newType, int newSize = 0)

Parameters

newType DataType

The target data type. Must be a supported compatible type for the current data type.

newSize int

The new size to apply when converting to a sized type such as VarChar. Defaults to 0.

Remarks

ReType is used internally during schema loading to reconcile database-reported types with Velocity's type model. It does not set ColumnUpdate and does not generate any DDL. Supported conversions are:

  • Clob → VarChar or Char
  • Decimal → Double
  • Geometry / Geography → VarChar or Clob (Full Edition only)

Unsupported conversions are silently ignored.
