Description danilchenko_anton 2009-10-30 10:42:29 UTC 
Open Services and Connect to MySQL server.
Open database table - show list of columns. Click on column name and select "Properties".

In opened window in I see line "Data type: LONGCHAR, Column size: 65536". This incorrect MySQL type. Really I use TEXT
data type.

Please fix this bug with all data types
Comment 1 Jiri Rechtacek 2009-11-04 14:38:12 UTC 
The problem is, that MySQL uses non-standard datatype TEXT which has no mapping into java.sql.Types what uses DB tooling
for representation all datatypes. So, there is no plan to change in NB6.8 => wontfix. On the other hand, we are
considering now a possibility providing 1st-class support for MySQL drivers,  including use non-standard types
proprietary for MySQL => changing to ENHANCEMENT.
