This release of gateway has Character Semantics functionality equivalent to the Oracle Database Character Semantics, that is, NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS. When HS_NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS is set to CHAR, the (VAR)CHAR columns of UDB database are to be interpreted as having CHAR semantics. The only situation the gateway does not honor the HS_NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS=CHAR setting is when both Oracle database and the gateway are on the same multi-byte character set
