Error of maxlength of field using DB2

Hi i am using DB2 as a database for my application.
I have come across a problem of maxlength for field name while working with a mainframe

the error is

The name "MANUAL_ENT_ALLOWED1" is too long. The maximum length is "18". SQLSTATE=42622

This is because i have a field name of 18 char while hibernate internally adds one more char for alias which is a problem.

Please guide.

Please put that to JIRA.

No, please don't. You must be using an obsolete version of Hibernate.

Actually, MANUAL_ENT_ALLOWED1 is not an alias generated by Hibernate anyway, so this is definitely not Hibernate's fault.

From some post later (:)http://forum.hibernate.org/viewtopic.php?t=929415), Gavin's right (of course)
