Modify Column Extension (Deprecated)

Overview

Liquibase 1.x contained a modifyColumn change tag to support changing an existing table. Unfortunately, because there are so many permutations of uses and parameters it was too difficult to support and manage. With Liquibase 2.x and beyond, we introduced more specific changes like renameColumn and modifyDataType.

This extension was created to support backwards compatibility for people using modifyColumn, however it is recommended to switch to the more specific change commands

Installation

Simply download the liquibase-modify-column jar from the release page and add it to your classpath.

Compatiblity

This extension requires Liquibase 3.0.6+ and Java 1.6+. The Liquibase 2 compatible is available from https://liquibase.jira.com/wiki/display/CONTRIB/ModifyColumn+Change
