Receive the following error while trying to change a table's
column data type:
ALTER TABLE people
ALTER COLUMN name
TYPE
String ~ You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual
that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax
to use near 'TYPE String' at line 1 (code: 1064, sql state: 42000,
query: ALTER TABLE people
ALTER COLUMN
name
TYPE String, uri:
mysql://root:@127.0.0.1datamapper_test) rake aborted!

block (2 levels) in <top (required)>' (See full trace
by running task with --trace)
Per http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/alter-table.html there is alter, modify, and change and dm-do-adapter makes no differentiation.
dm-core 1.0.2, MySQL 5.5
