In my Python GP tool getParameterInfo method I want to declare a string parameter like this:
def getParameterInfo(self):
"""Define parameter definitions"""
paramName = arcpy.Parameter(
displayName = 'Name',
name = 'in_name',
datatype = 'GPString',
parameterType = 'Required',
direction = 'Input')
return [paramName]
Can I specify maximum length of it her? I want 255 as this input will go to the table attribute of varchar(255).
Or I should deal with such validation myself in updateParameters/updateMessages methods?
