Type mapping Char -> Memo

I have a connection-level type map set up for pgText -> ftString.

In some cases, I need to keep a specific field as ftMemo. But if I try to do this via AddFieldNameRule('FieldName', ftMemo), I get the error 'Unsupported data type mapping: "Character(8191)" to "Memo"'. The reason for this is clear: the corresponding OnDemandConverters are commented out in CRDataTypeMap.pas.

Are there any plans to add support for this mapping? Is there any other way to do this?

Hello,

There is no such functionality at the moment. We plan to implement this feature in one of the next versions. We cannot tell the exact terms of this feature implementation yet.
