<code class="command">ecpg</code> can be run in a so-called <em class="firstterm">Oracle
compatibility mode</em>. If this mode is active, it tries to
behave as if it were Oracle <span class="productname">Pro*C</span>.
</p><p>
Specifically, this mode changes <code class="command">ecpg</code> in three ways:
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
Pad character arrays receiving character string types with
trailing spaces to the specified length
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
Zero byte terminate these character arrays, and set the indicator
variable if truncation occurs
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
Set the null indicator to <code class="literal">-1</code> when character
arrays receive empty character string types
</p></li></ul></div><p>
