This is from the source..
// This property controls if a CHAR field should be space padded
// or not.
// The reason for doing so is to get around certain database
// driver bugs.
// (Oracle type 4 driver)
//
public boolean isUseSpacePadding() { return
getRuntimeMetaData().getBooleanValue(RuntimeMetaData.USE_SPACEPADDING); }
public void setUseSpacePadding(boolean useSpacePadding) {
getRuntimeMetaData().setBooleanValue(RuntimeMetaData.USE_SPACEPADDING,useSpacePadding);
}
...it also shows up in the following exception error message
"The row specified by the resolution query was not found.\r\nTypical
reasons are:\r\n Somebody deleted or changed this row.\r\n A
floating point comparison failed to match.\r\n A CHAR field needs
space padding (see Database.setUseSpacePadding).\r\nQuery:\r\n ",
Hope that helps..
