+.. versionchanged:: 0.6
+ SQLAlchemy uses the "native unicode" mode provided as of cx_oracle 5.
+ cx_oracle 5.0.2 or greater is recommended for support of NCLOB.
+ If not using cx_oracle 5, the NLS_LANG environment variable needs
+ to be set in order for the oracle client library to use proper encoding,
+ such as "AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8".
Also note that Oracle supports unicode data through the NVARCHAR and NCLOB data types.
When using the SQLAlchemy Unicode and UnicodeText types, these DDL types will be used
