EXAMPLES

While Xpand accepts the NCHAR data type on table create, it is silently replaced with CHAR:

CREATE TABLE nchar_example (
   example NCHAR(32)
);
SHOW CREATE TABLE nchar_example\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
       Table: nchar_example
Create Table: CREATE TABLE `nchar_example` (
  `example` char(32) CHARACTER SET utf8
) CHARACTER SET utf8 /*$ SLICES=3 */
