length of id column for databasechangeloglog

General Discussion

Hello,


The length of the id column is set to 63 characters for databasechangeloglog. I was wondering why there is this limitation, because we sometimes have larger ids than that. Would it be safe to extend this?


Thanks for your help

It is safe to extend it. It is set to 63 chars because some database types have a limit on the number of chars that can be indexed. Id+author+path columns are indexed and fit those three columns in the length requirements of all databases by default. If you need to extend any you can. You can even alter the table in a changeSet.

Hi Nathan,

Thank you for your quick response. Using a changeset for this works great!
