hbm2ddl strange behaviour

[Wirianto Djunaidi]

For some datatype (mostly numerics), hbm2ddl seems to ignore length property when declared as <property>'s attribute instead of <column>'s attribute.

Example:

<property name="test" column="test" type="long" lenght="5"/>

For oracle will generate:
[bold]test number(10)[bold]

While it works fine for string data type.

Is that a bug or it supposed to work that way? So far we circumvent it
by declacaring <column> and use sql-type.

Looking forward to Hibernate3, especially filter capability.

<property name="test" column="test" type="long" lenght="5"/>

I think, value of type attribute should be same type in database.

[Alexandru Popescu]

long is corresponding to an SQL BIGINT type which doesn't have length (my 2c).

In my opinion : use "sql-type" attribute is good.
