I'm not sure if this is the best place for this question (so redirect if not) but I was wondering about the String default from the activerecord-jdbc-adapter.

When using Oracle the default for string seems odd.

create_table :accounts do |t|
        t.string :name
end

This will create a column VARCHAR2(4000). I can set the :limit to 255 but I was curious - why doesn't it do this automatically?
