The code in the 3.3.1.GA subversion tag is not the code that's been released on the maven repository.jboss.org as 3.3.1.GA -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-3530 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3530 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Components: build Affects Versions: 3.3.1 Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet Here's the proof: http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Hibernate/core/tags/hibernate-3.3.1.GA/co... contains the lines (44-45): registerColumnType( Types.CLOB, "longtext" ); registerColumnType( Types.CLOB, 16777215, "mediumtext" ); registerColumnType( Types.CLOB, 65535, "text" ); But the sources jar downloaded from http://repository.jboss.org/maven2/org/hibernate/hibernate-core/3.3.1.GA/... file org\hibernate\dialect\MySQLDialect.java so on my pc C:\Documents and Settings\gds\.m2\repository\org\hibernate\hibernate-core\3.3.1.GA\hibernate-core-3.3.1.GA-sources.jar!\org\hibernate\dialect\MySQLDialect.java has these lines (66-68) instead: registerColumnType( Types.CLOB, "longtext" ); // registerColumnType( Types.CLOB, 16777215, "mediumtext" ); // registerColumnType( Types.CLOB, 65535, "text" ); It's not just some copyright stuff that been added (giving it different line numbers), some lines are clearly commented out. Maybe untagged changes happened in other files too? -- 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
