Hello all, I am migrating an application to the Oracle backend. Unfortunately, it uses blank-padded semantics when compares string values. I store strings as VARCHAR2 in Oracle, which uses non-padded comparison semantics for it. The question: should I go for CHAR (oracle compare them as blank-padded) or there is some setting (session level preferably), so Oracle compare VARCHAR2 in the same way as CHAR?
