 I'm not sure this is actual bug or I am doing something wrong (please
 point me to the doc if I missed one).

 I am trying `GeneratedField` on Django 5.0 in a project running on Oracle
 Database 19c Enterprise Edition, Version 19.18.0.0.0. My real use case is
 bit more complicated so made up a simpler one - I have
 `ts_password_changed` as `DateTimeField(blank=True, null=True)` and I'm
 trying to add generated boolean field:


 {{{
     is_password_changed = GeneratedField(
         expression=ExpressionWrapper(Q(ts_password_changed__isnull=False),
 output_field=models.BooleanField()),
         output_field=models.BooleanField(),
         db_persist=False
     )
 }}}

 The generated migration SQL looks like this:


 {{{
 ALTER TABLE "CORE_USER" ADD "IS_PASSWORD_CHANGED" NUMBER(1) GENERATED
 ALWAYS AS ("TS_PASSWORD_CHANGED" IS NOT NULL) VIRTUAL;
 }}}
 and Oracle refuses it with

 {{{
 ORA-54016: Invalid column expression was specified, Position 81
 }}}

 However, it works when I modify the query to


 {{{
 ALTER TABLE "CORE_USER" ADD "IS_PASSWORD_CHANGED" NUMBER(1) GENERATED
 ALWAYS AS (CASE WHEN "TS_PASSWORD_CHANGED" IS NOT NULL THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)
 VIRTUAL;
 }}}
 which is probably what Django should be generating.
