ALTER statement: Why VARCHAR2(50 BYTE) instead of VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)?
提问by Withheld
I executed the following (Oracle 11g) SQL statement to increasean existing column's length from VARCHAR2(20 CHAR) to VARCHAR2(50 CHAR):
我执行下面(的Oracle 11g)的SQL语句,以增加从VARCHAR2(20 CHAR)到VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)现有列的长度:
ALTER TABLE USERX.MY_TABLE MODIFY (LASTNAME VARCHAR2(50));
It succeeded without incident, but when I look at the new Data Type
column, I see: VARCHAR2(50 BYTE)
instead of VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
.
它成功了,没有发生任何意外,但是当我查看新Data Type
列时,我看到:VARCHAR2(50 BYTE)
而不是VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
.
My questions are:
我的问题是:
- Why BYTEand not CHAR? What have I done incorrectly?
- How do I fix the column's length to be
VARCHAR2(100 CHAR)
?
- 为什么是BYTE而不是 CHAR?我做错了什么?
- 如何将列的长度固定为
VARCHAR2(100 CHAR)
?

Answering myself (thanks to the tip provided by this other answer):
回答我自己(感谢其他答案提供的提示):
I should have executed instead:
我应该执行:
ALTER TABLE USERX.MY_TABLE MODIFY (LASTNAME VARCHAR2(50 CHAR));
(note the extra CHAR
after 50)
(注意CHAR
50后的额外)
