NVARCHAR2 field value truncated

hello,
I'm using Entity Framework, I have an application which worked well with old 4.7x version. Now I upgraded to newest 5.0 version and suddenly all the NVARCHAR2 database fields have a problem: the value is truncated when queried with Entity Framework.
If I change the field type to VARCHAR2 it works.
what has happened between version 4.7x and version 5.0?

Please specify the exact version (x.xx.xx) of dotConnect for Oracle you are using.
I have checked the 5.00.16 version. There is no truncation with the NVARCHAR2 fields (the values are stored in the database with original spaces in the end of string).

my version is 5.0.16.0 (as I just read from GAC), and I have problem in reading values from NVARCHAR2 fields.
I just disinstalled 4.73 version, installed 5.00.16, changed the Provider string to "Devart.Data.Oracle", build and run the application. No other changes at all.
all the NVARCHAR2 field values (in various classes) are truncated.
