[forge-dev] Add means of defining constraint for Length on String

[Antonio Goncalves]

I've actually just changed my demo. I'm using Amazon web services to parse
Java EE 7 books and the description of a book can be quite long (>250
chars), so I've just trimmed it to 255. So that's fine for me. It's an
interesting feature to have that might disappear in Java EE 8 (@Size
(max=2000) hopefully will be interpreted by JPA). But in the meantime, a
--length field would help... but it can wait till Forge 2 (can't wait to
start using it ;o)

See you at J1
