what about CLOB type? Unicode only handles String type. Do i need to
use convert_unicode there?
if your CLOB expects non-ascii characters then yes.
though on Oracle I thought you really need to be using NCLOB for a col
that stores unicode.

Thanks for help. But still i have confusion over encoding and
decoding procedure which will take place before retrieving and
storing the results in DB.
In case if i am not using convert_unicode option and data type is
String so python process will give str object to sqlalchemy at
the time of insert record in DB using ORM. So will alchemy store
that object in encoded form?. So at the time of retrieving ORM
will give str object for String type column to python and python
decode that object with default encoding?
Can i simply use Unicode Data type for columns where there might
be chance of using non ascii data?
if you know that your unicode data is on specific columns then
yes, the Unicode type plugs in an encoder/decoder for those
backends that require it.

We are using sqlalchemy version 0.7, python 2.7 and oracle
Database.
We have ASCII as default python encoding and DB have
ISO-8052 encoding. Our DB tables contains some of characters
which are out of ASCII range. So when we are running query
on those tables we are getting Unicode Decode error saying
"ASCII" codec can not decode. This error we are getting
without accessing model attributes.
How i can handle these errors without changing python
default encoding.
Oracle's client encoding is controlled by the NLS_LANG
environment variable. That has to be set correctly first
off (see
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/products/globalization/nls-lang-099431.html).
If you have non-ASCII strings encoded in datatypes that are
explicitly not of type NVARCHAR or NCLOB , or you're relying
on a lot of raw SQL, and you are still getting errors, I
would set the "coerce_to_unicode=True" flag on
create_engine(), which allows cx_Oracle's unicode facilities
to take place fully for all string data being returned, at
the expense of some performance. See
http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/rel_1_0/dialects/oracle.html#unicode
for background.
