EXAMPLES
TINYBLOB
Example of TINYBLOB:
CREATE TABLE tinyblob_example ( description VARCHAR(20), example TINYBLOB ) DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1; -- One byte per char makes the examples clearer
INSERT INTO tinyblob_example VALUES ('Normal foo', 'foo'), ('Trailing spaces foo', 'foo '), ('NULLed', NULL), ('Empty', ''), ('Maximum', RPAD('', 255, CHAR(7)));
SELECT description, LENGTH(example) AS length FROM tinyblob_example;
+---------------------+--------+ | description | length | +---------------------+--------+ | Normal foo | 3 | | Trailing spaces foo | 9 | | NULLed | NULL | | Empty | 0 | | Maximum | 255 | +---------------------+--------+
Data Too Long
When SQL_MODE is strict (the default) a value is considered "too long" when its length exceeds the size of the data type, and an error is generated.
Example of data too long behavior for TINYBLOB:
TRUNCATE tinyblob_example; INSERT INTO tinyblob_example VALUES ('Overflow', RPAD('', 256, CHAR(7)));
ERROR 1406 (22001): Data too long for column 'example' at row 1
