Python extension truncates output #33
Description
Python extension seems to truncate output string to 65535 characters. This is reproducible with SQL Server 2019 and Python 3.7.x and 3.9.x
The code snippet below reproduces the issue, assuming external language myPython is created.
CREATE OR ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.P_TestPython
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @RequestStr VARCHAR(max)=replicate('A',10000),
@ResponseStr VARCHAR(max),
@i INT=1
WHILE @i<=4 BEGIN
SELECT @RequestStr=@RequestStr+@RequestStr
SET @i+=1
END
-- Prints 128000
select len(@RequestStr)
EXEC sp_execute_external_script
@language=N'myPython',
@script=N'
print(len(RequestStr))
ResponseStr = RequestStr
',
@params=N'@RequestStr VARCHAR(MAX),@ResponseStr VARCHAR(MAX) OUTPUT',
@RequestStr=@RequestStr,
@ResponseStr=@ResponseStr OUTPUT
-- Prints 65535
select len(@ResponseStr)
END
go
EXEC dbo.P_TestPython
go
-- Output 128000,65535
