Re: TypeInfoCache

My main concern is that 'text' is a very common type to use in PostgreSQL based designs, and that JDBC applications are more likely to understand how to interpret a field that claims to be VARCHAR than one that is LONGVARCHAR, given that LONGVARCHAR is a relatively strange type and at best poorly defined.

This is my concern as well, which is why I suggested that changing the precision value might be a better solution. Daniel, any opinion on that alternative?
