Hibernate version:
3.1.2

Name and version of the database:
MySQL 5

Question
I use spring and hibernate. I'm not sure if it is a pure hibernate question, but is it possible to retrieve the length of a field in a tablecolumn? Like a mysql table where a person table has a firstName field with a length of 25? Then trying to retrieve the length?

Thanx Kenny

Well this is more a JDBC question, you can use session.connection().getMetaData().getColumns() I'm not sure what will be returned but this is the way to go IMO.

Something like

Code:

configuration.getClassMapping("Person").getTable().getColumn(new Column("firstName")).getLength();

Don't forget to rate :-)
