This issue came up because our app only supports ASCII strings, not unicode. Currently we use the RawStr property for attributes mapped to SQL Server VARCHAR fields, which has been working fine for us with the MS SQL backend.
Howevever, we're working toward Oracle compatibility now for our app (while still continuing MS SQL support), and we're finding that RawStr isn't appropriate for VARCHAR since RawStr needs to be hexified to support BLOB. We're discussing creating an Ascii property to use for mapping to VARCHAR. Is that the best approach, or does anyone have a different recommendation?
