Teneo/Hibernate maps String to VARCHAR(255) per default. If values with sizes of more than 255 characters are expected, this mapping strategy might result in a lot of exceptions. A simple solution for this is to change the mapping from VARCHAR to TEXT of the EAttribute. Teneo supports such a mapping by looking for a specific annotation value (“@Lob” in “teneo.jpa” annotation).
How-to:
1. Add an EAnnotation to the EAttribute
2. Set source of the EAnnotation to “teneo.jpa”
3. Add a Details Entry to the EAnnotation
4. Set the key of the Details Entry to “value”
5. Set the value of the Details Entry to “@Lob”
6. Regenerate your model
7. Recreate the database (Teneo will not update the table per default)
