MariaDB RPAD_ORACLE SQL Function - Pad string on the right in Oracle mode |
|
| RPAD_ORACLE | Syntax: | RPAD_ORACLE(String, Length, String to append) | Return value: | CHAR | Function type: | String function | |
| | The RPAD_ORACLE() function returns "String" with "Length" as the result, with the missing characters being filled with "String to append" on the right side.
If "Length" is less than the length of "String", "String" is returned truncated to "Length". This then corresponds to the function LEFT().
If "String to append" is not specified, the RPAD_ORACLE() function pads with spaces.
Numeric values of "String" or "String to append" are interpreted as character strings.
If "String" or "String to append" is NULL, the RPAD_ORACLE() function returns NULL.
This feature is available from MariaDB 10.3.6.
Unlike RPAD_ORACLE(), the function RPAD() returns an empty string instead of NULL, if the result is empty.
This feature is not present in MySQL 8.0. | SQL Examples for the RPAD_ORACLE function |

The function is useful when it is necessary to ensure that a string has a certain length by adding padding characters on the right side. RPAD_ORACLE() is commonly used to format data, align text, or create fixed-length fields in reports or display output. Unlike the RPAD() function, RPAD_ORACLE() returns NULL if the result is empty. | | Further MySQL und MariaDB SQL String functions | CHAR | CHAR(Character code, [, Charset]) | More about CHAR Function |
