I am having problems when saving enums.

I have the following definitions:


public enum DATATYPES {

STRING,
INTEGER,
FLOAT,
DOUBLE,
CHAR,
BYTE,
}


@Entity
public class ITAttribute {

protected String id;
@Id (generate = GeneratorType.AUTO)
@Column(length=20)
public String getId() {
return this.id;
}
public void setId (String id) {
this.id = id;
}

public ITAttribute (DATATYPES dataType) {
//super(name);
this.dataType = dataType;
}

private DATATYPES dataType;
public DATATYPES getDataType() {
return this.dataType;
}
public void setDataType (DATATYPES dataType) {
this.dataType = dataType;
}


}

hibernate tool generates this database table:

[hibernatetool] create table ITAttribute (id varchar2(20 char) not null, dataType number(10,0), primary key (id));




Then when I do something like

main {
...
...

ITAttribute a1 = new ITAttribute( DATATYPES.STRING);
s.save(a1);
...
}

I get the following exception:

15:42:22,418 WARN Configurator:126 - No configuration found. Configuring ehcache from ehcache-failsafe.xml found in the classpath: jar:file:/C:/projects/LivePortfolio/web/WEB-INF/lib/ehcache-1.1.jar!/ehcache-failsafe.xml

Any help will be appreciated.
