Hibernate version: 3.0.5

Mapping documents:


I have implemented Configurable and IdentifierGenerator and need to know the length of the id, but as you see in the snippet above, I had to add that as a "param". What I would like is to define the length attribute directly in the id element, and then access that length through Hibernate's API. For example,



However, the methods I implement only pass me Type, Properties, Dialect and SessionImplementor, and I can't find any way to get to the PersistentClass or Table, or Column, etc. by using those arguments.

Thanks for any help...
