1 digit numeric getting mapped as boolean by generator

If you reverse engineeer a table to create a domain model and hibernate mapping files, any field defined on the table as NUMERIC 1 gets mapped as a type of "boolean."

This is incorrect as a NUMERIC 1 can hold values from 0-9, not true or false.

then redefine it in a reveng.xml

NUMERIC 1 seems to be mostly used to map to a boolean thus we chose to do that per default instead of the more mathematical correct byte field.

I must admit we tend use it exactly so but thought it was worth checking anyway.

Thanks for reveng.xml hint.
