[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-3055) Incorrect type of SQLServer column for Java 'float' field

[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3055?page=c... ] Guillaume Grussenmeyer commented on HHH-3055: --------------------------------------------- Hi Anthony, concerning the fact that "every Entity using java Float fields must map to a "real" type field in the database", that's precisely what we're trying to achieve: not doing so will led to precision loss during database data reading (trying to stuff a double-precision data (db level) into a single-precision one (java level)). If your database contains "float" fields, they should be mapped as "double" in Java. In that case, Hibernate will use JDBC DOUBLE type (as per org.hibernate.type.DoubleType), so there is no need to add another mapping. Another solution is not to use any float Java fields and use doubles instead. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
