Indeed I'm using the eclipse pluggin. I had the same thinking about wrinting
a pluggin and overwriting the modelfieldGenerated method. Something like if
introspectedColumn.isNullable so add a @Required Annotation. But I don't
know if I can do that with a @MaxLength annotation because I need to give
the maxLength in parameter. Do you think something like that will work :
@Override
public boolean modelFieldGenerated(Field field,TopLevelClass topLevelClass,
IntrospectedColumn introspectedColumn,IntrospectedTable introspectedTable,
ModelClassType modelClassType) {
if(introspectedColumn.isNullable()) {
field.addAnnotation("@Required");
}
int maxLength = introspectedColumn.getLength();
StringBuffer maxLengthAnnotation = new StringBuffer();
maxLengthAnnotation.append("@MaxLength")
.append("(value=")
.append(maxLength).append(")");
field.addAnnotation(maxLengthAnnotation.toString());
return true;
}
