[Rd] does RMySQL support the MySQL String Column Type TEXT ?

[Armin S. A. Roehrl]

Dear Mysql & R users,

first of all a big thanks to the authors of RMySQL.

I got the following table;
mysql> describe UserClick;
+----------------+-------------+------+-----+---------+-------+---------------------------------+
| Field          | Type        | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
Privileges
|
+----------------+-------------+------+-----+---------+-------+---------------------------------+
| UseTransaction | varchar(20) |      |     |         |       |
select,insert,update,references |
| Engine         | varchar(30) |      |     |         |       |
select,insert,update,references |
| URL            | text        |      |     |         |       |
select,insert,update,references |
+----------------+-------------+------+-----+---------+-------+-----------------

I access it via:
rs<-dbExecStatement(con,"SELECT *  from UserClick")
res<-fetch(rs)

Things go wrong withthe URL entry which is of type text;
$Engine
[1] "Armintest" "Test"      "Voila"     
$URL
$URL[[1]]
NULL
...


Any ideas of how I could fix that would be highly appreciated. If it's
not yet
implemented, if you give me a few indications, I would implement it.

Thanks,
	Armin
