@Past validation annotation generates incorrect DDL for Oracle 8.x ------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: ANN-21 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/ANN-21 Project: Hibernate Annotations Type: Bug

Components: validator Versions: 3.1beta3 Environment: Hibernate 3.0.5 Oracle 8.1.7 (running on Win XP Pro) Reporter: Aye Thu Priority: Minor

The following validation code: @Past public Date getBirthDate() { return birthDate; } produces the following DDL when using the OracleDialect: create table Person (party_id number(19,0) not null, birth_date date check (birth_date < current_date), primary key (party_id)) The "current_date" was introduced only in Oracle 9i and is not available in earlier Oracle versions and the following SQL exception is thrown: ORA-02438: Column check constraint cannot reference other columns According to Gavin, the current validation framework is not aware of Dialects.
