---------------------------------------

Hi Andrus,

I have the same problem as Akira. As I understand it from your comment I should manually create the tables using GRAPHIC columns (where needed)? 
As it is not sure if this solution will work (you said 'should work'), I'll test this later and will post results in this issue.  

I think you should take a second look at:
- supporting DBCS columns from the modeler (for the databases that support this) and/or
- documenting the current solution.

>             Project: Cayenne
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Modeler
>    Affects Versions: 2.0 branch
>         Environment: Cayenne 2.0.2 , Windows XP , DB2 v9
>            Reporter: Akira Shimosako
>            Priority: Minor
>
> I want to use GRAPHIC and VARGRAPHIC type of DB2 , but Cayenne modeler GUI does not have GRAPHIC/VARGRAPHIC type.
> (I can not chose GRAPHIC/VARGRAPHIC type in Cayenne modeler's DbEntity atribute.)
> Please add GRAPHIC and VARGRAPHIC type to Cayenne modeler.
> GRAPHIC is string type, like CHAR. 
> VARGRAPHIC is variable length string type , like VARCHAR.
> GRAPHIC/VARGRPAHIC  type can contain double byte charactors (like Japanese,Chinese etc.)
> So, GRAPHIC/VARGRPAHIC  types should be mapped with java.lang.String.
