 ## Extensions in the latest SNAPSHOT version 1.3
 
+* support for special oracle type syntax **varchar2(255 BYTE)** (issue #273) 
 * introduced dotted multipart names for uservariables (issue #608)
 * changed behaviour of dotted multipart names for tables and columns to accept ORM class names (issue #163)
 ** the parser allows now empty inner names, to still accept missing schema names for SQLServer (db..col)
