> By default Oracle interprets varchar2($l) as varchar2($l byte) It means that the length of string is 255 bytes. When I use ASCII symbols it is acceptably.
> But when I store UTF8 strings the length is really shorter. But most of all DBMS implies the length in chars not in bytes.
> I propose to change the line
>         registerColumnType( Types.VARCHAR, 4000, "varchar2($l)" );
> to
>         registerColumnType( Types.VARCHAR, 4000, "varchar2($l char)" );
> in order to have length of strings in chars by default.
