type column length in Deck component

[Woodruff]

Hi everybody,

In order to initialize a Deck component in DB, the type proposed by the framework for the type column is varchar(16).
Is it possible to increase that max length of 16 characters, setting it for example as varchar(32), without damaging the component?

I do not say I will necessarely do it but it would be good to know as I investigate.

Thanks

Wood

As far as I understand it then yes, you're free to change them to whatever you need. I had to increase the length of the "location" field in Deus iirc, and am not aware of any problems that have been caused by it.

OK, thanks for that feedback.
If I need to make such a change, I know I can probably do it safely
