I run into some issues trying to map my column metadata with SQL Server Bulk Copy API and SQLServerBulkCSVFileRecord
. Just for test purposes I made a table consisting of only nvarchar(500)
columns and add the metadata like this:
fileRecord = new SQLServerBulkCSVFileRecord(csvPath, false);
for(int i=1; i<=colCount; i++) {
fileRecord.addColumnMetadata(i, null, java.sql.Types.NVARCHAR, 500, 0);
}
I get the following stacktrace after using the Microsoft SQL bulk copy API with JDBC and I can't find any documentation on SQLServerBulkCSVFileRecord
. I don't know what the parameters in addColumnMetaData
stand for: I just assumed looking at this example that the first parameter stands for column index and then obviously the third one for data-type, the fourth being byte count of the column(?).
com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Unicode data is odd byte size for column 1. Should be even byte size.

I read that blank lines, non CRLF line endings, encoding etc. could have an impact but I feel like I've exhausted those options.
Finally here's a little sample of my CSV file:
column1|test|1|testtest|test3
column2|test|2|testt46426est|test346
column3|test|3|test4test|test3426234
You are not specifying the pipe character as your field delimiter. Note that it needs to be escaped as
"\\|"
because, according to the documentation:I just tried the following code and it worked for me:
