seam-gen doesn't handle hibernate types such as yes_no
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-3298
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3298
             Project: Seam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Tools
    Affects Versions: 2.0.3.CR1
         Environment: JBoss 4.2.2, DB2, Linux
            Reporter: Valerie Griffin


My database has quite a few CHAR(1) entries used as boolean values where the field can contain Y or N. I defined these entries as hibernate yes_no in the seam-gen.reveng.xml file, but the code didn't reflect the data type. To work, the field needs to be annotated with 

	@Type(type = "yes_no")

and needs to not contain an annotation like:

	@Length(max = 1)

If the Type annotation is absent, hibernate detects a schema mismatch. (It expects a numeric boolean value.)

If there's a Length annotation, the UI's checkbox displays a surprising error message about the data length.
