BIGINT UNSIGNED (ULong)

Supported by ✅ Open Source Edition   ✅ Express Edition   ✅ Professional Edition   ✅ Enterprise Edition

The BIGINT UNSIGNED data type represents an unsigned, 64 bit integer, or org.jooq.types.ULong in Java. It has no representation in JDBC.

If unsigned support is unavailable in a dialect, jOOQ will just map the type to the next higher integer type DECIMAL INTEGER (BigInteger).

DDL support

Dialect support

This example using jOOQ:

createTable("t").column("c", BIGINTUNSIGNED)

Translates to the following dialect specific expressions:

Access, SQLDataWarehouse, SQLServer, SQLite, Teradata

CREATE TABLE t (
  c numeric
)

ASE, Sybase

CREATE TABLE t (
  c unsigned bigint NULL
)

Aurora MySQL, BigQuery, DB2, Informix, MariaDB, MemSQL, MySQL, Trino

CREATE TABLE t (
  c bigint unsigned
)

Aurora Postgres, CockroachDB, Derby, Firebird, HSQLDB, Hana, Postgres, Redshift, Vertica, YugabyteDB

CREATE TABLE t (
  c decimal
)

ClickHouse

CREATE TABLE t (
  c Nullable(UInt64)
)
ENGINE Log()

Databricks

CREATE TABLE t (
  c bigint unsigned
)
TBLPROPERTIES(
  'delta.columnMapping.mode' = 'name',
  'delta.feature.allowColumnDefaults' = 'supported'
)

DuckDB

CREATE TABLE t (
  c ubigint
)

Exasol, H2

CREATE TABLE t (
  c number
)
