== FAQ
[qanda]
What about unicode-columns like `NVARCHAR` or `NCLOB`?::
- Simply define them in your changesets; This is something which is not completely verified:
- Maybe columns like `NCLOB` cause problems in some DBMS like _MS SQL Server_
+ Simply define them in your changesets. They are prefered over non-unicode-datatypes
What if i switch between branches and want to switch between different database-states?::
This is something that needs to be defined. Possible ways: rollback or recreate your database entirely
Is it possible to write an update-changeset where I can use a preparedStatement in the where-clause?::

This is a simple overview about when to to use which datatype.
== Boolean ==
-Datatype:
-tinyint
-
-Usage:
+=== Datatype ===
+----
+TINYINT
+----
+=== Usage ===
0 => false
1 => true
Add nullable="false" constraint, because for boolean null makes no sense and complicates searches and validations.
+
+== Text ==
+Text should be saved as Unicode. For this prefix the datatype with a 'N' (there are some exceptions lik the UUID)
+
+=== Big text ===
+For informations, descriptions, ...
+----
+NCLOB
+----
+
+=== Small / Normal text ===
+For Names, ...
+
+You have to define the maximum length.
+----
+NVARCHAR(50)
+----
+
+=== Fixed size text ===
+If you are sure that the length is always fixed and will not change.
+
+You have to define the length.
+----
+NCHAR(5)
+----
+
+=== UUID's, standardized codes ===
+For them unicode is mostly not needed. Only use unicode here if you are sure, it is needed.
+
+For UUID's, standardized codes (language codes), ...
+
+You have to define the length.
+----
+CHAR(5)
+----
+
+UUID needs length 36:
+----
+CHAR(36)
+----
+
+=== Decimal numbers ===
+If precision and fixed decimals (Nachkommastellen) are needed, use DECIMAL.
+For prices, ...
+----
+DECIMAL(10, 2)
+----
+
+Else you can use double.
+----
+DOUBLE

+
+=== Integer numbers ===
+In normal cases just use INTEGER
+
+If you know that very big integers or only very small Integers are needed, you can also use
