Increase Table->Column Name length to 50 chars from Glide script. Default column name allowed seems to be 30 chars.

Hi ,

Can you help me with code , to increase Table->Column Name size to 50 chars from Glide script. Default column name allowed seems to be 30 chars.  I have column name as 'rf1_assignment_group_prior_failure_rate' , when creating from script it truncates to 30 chars as 'rf1_asgmnt_grp_r_failure_rate'. 

var attrs = new Packages.java.util.HashMap();

var column_name="rf1_assignment_group_prior_failure_rate";

var column_attributes = new GlideColumnAttributes(column_name);
column_attributes.setType(string);
column_attributes.setUsePrefix(false);
attrs.put(column_name, column_attributes);
var table_create = new GlideTableCreator("abc", table_name);
table_create.setColumnAttributes(attrs);
table_create.update();

Thanks,

Hi Mohan,

why would you like to create columns from script? It is not recommended

Hi Ankur, 

This is required as part of packaged solution, that will need to be deployed on multiple instances. Thanks.
