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..
