NAME

       Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Varchar - Variable-length character column metadata.

SYNOPSIS

         use Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Varchar;

         $col = Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Varchar->new(...);
         $col->make_methods(...);
         ...

DESCRIPTION

       Objects of this class store and manipulate metadata for variable-length character columns
       in a database.  Column metadata objects store information about columns (data type, size,
       etc.) and are responsible for creating object methods that manipulate column values.

       This class inherits from Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Character. Inherited methods
       that are not overridden will not be documented a second time here.  See the
       Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Character documentation for more information.

       See the Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column documentation for an explanation of this method
       map.

OBJECT METHODS
