*DESCRIPTION*
When creating a table in all ANSI-SQL compliant RDBMS' the VARCHAR datatype
takes a numeric parameter, however this parameter is generating errors in
CQL3.
*STEPS TO REPRODUCE*
CREATE TABLE test (id BIGINT PRIMARY KEY, col1 VARCHAR(256)); // emits Bad
Request: line 1:54 mismatched input '(' expecting ')'
CREATE TABLE test (id BIGINT PRIMARY KEY, col1 VARCHAR); // this works
*SUGGESTED RESOLUTION*
The current fail-fast approach does not create the column so that the user
is 100% clear that the length parameter means nothing to NOSQL.
I would like to propose that the column length be allowed in the grammar
(but ignored by cassandra), allowing better ANSI-SQL client compatibility.
