Would you please add the length of the column to the @Column annotation

[Adrninistrator]

In the generated code,there is no length property in @Column annotation, the length of columns in the automatic generated database tables is the default value 255.

I found the below code, it may works (https://my.oschina.net/zhanglikun/blog/148633/print) :

String type = columnType.toLowerCase() ;
        String propertyType = null ;
        if(StringUtils.startsWith(type, "int")) {               // int/long
            columnSize = NumberUtils.toInt(StringUtils.substring(type, StringUtils.indexOf(type, "(") + 1 ,StringUtils.indexOf(type, ")"))) ;
            if(columnSize <= 4)propertyType = "Integer" ;
            else propertyType = "Long" ;
        } else if(StringUtils.startsWith(type, "bigint")) {     // long 
            propertyType = "Long" ;
        } else if(StringUtils.startsWith(type, "double")) {     // double
            propertyType = "Double" ;
        } else if(StringUtils.startsWith(type, "float")) {      // float
            propertyType = "Float" ;
        } else if(StringUtils.startsWith(type, "varchar")) {    // String
            columnSize = NumberUtils.toInt(StringUtils.substring(type, StringUtils.indexOf(type, "(") + 1 ,StringUtils.indexOf(type, ")"))) ;
            propertyType = "String" ;
        } else if(StringUtils.startsWith(type, "char")) {       // String
            columnSize = NumberUtils.toInt(StringUtils.substring(type, StringUtils.indexOf(type, "(") + 1 ,StringUtils.indexOf(type, ")"))) ;
            propertyType = "String" ;
        } else if(StringUtils.startsWith(type, "text")) {       // String
            propertyType = "String" ;
        } else if(StringUtils.startsWith(type, "date")) {       // date
            propertyType = "java.util.Date" ;
        } else if(StringUtils.startsWith(type, "datetime")) {   // date
            propertyType = "java.util.Date" ;
        } else if(StringUtils.startsWith(type, "timestamp")) {  // date 
            propertyType = "java.util.Date" ;

Would please add the length property. Thanks!

This is just my opinion, but having some features to allow 3rd parties to create their own extensions may be fine for supporting this type of enhancements. 🤔

@pierrickrouxel I hope your three PRs get merged soon. I like the project as ist fits the way I want to write JPA entities.
