I have an application that uses hibernate to generate tables (since my application is still under development) for HSQL db. In my domain model I have set
@Basic
@Column(name = "about", length = 10)
private String about;
When I open my db using DBVisualizer I can see that everything is set up properly except it is not working my column accepts values that are way over 10 characters long. When I try to run the query manually in the DBVisualier it fails as it should but hibernate lets it run.
Also very strange is when I use the file (in stead of in memory db) so that I can see the db structure and I point to the DBVisualizer it somehow breaks the connection so my changes from the Hibernate are not visible from that moment on. Everything still works I just cant see that changes in the DBVisualizer but I can in the application.
Anyone has any idea about this weird behavior?
cheers all
