Oracle NVARCHAR type and "Data Frame Type Mapping"

[DATA2PLAYvf]

Hello,

I saw the new functionality "Data Frame Type Mapping". The documentation mention that oracledb.DB_TYPE_NVARCHAR have no mapping with Arrow.
In my cases, all my datasets have this type. Bad luck !

Is it a limit due to arrow ? Is it an oracledb limitation that will be considered soon ?

Thanks !

Vincent

It is an oversight. The use of NVARCHAR and NCHAR data is no longer common and is not recommended. But there should be no reason it shouldn't work. We'll get that corrected!

And it has been corrected. See issue #505 .
