Symptom

  • ADO.Net Data Provider truncates big strings into 16384 characters (16K) when inserting big strings into an ASE table column of a text data type.
  • The issue may happen silently.
  • The issue can result in an error String data, right truncatedin ADO.Net client applications.
  • The following pattern can be seen in the RIBO tracing (example using “*” in big string sequence):
    • PDU Header
        TDS Packet Type [1]:          BUF_NORMAL (0x0F)
        Status [1]:                   BUFSTAT_EOM (0x01)
        Length [2]:                   176
        Channel [2]:                  0
        Packet No. [1]:               0
        Window [1]:                   0
       
      PARAMS Token (0xD7); variable length.
        Param 1
          Length [4]:                 16384
          Param data [16384]:  “*** (...) ***” 
  • Using “set textsize” or “TextSize” in the connection string to expand the string size does not work.
