Hello hibernate-users:
I hope this isn't a FAQ but I am curious...
I believe a method can only have 254 parameters as indicated here:

My guess is that a constructor has a similar limit and won't compile anyway.
So, if one had a very large table, say 1000 columns or more, would
Hibernate use the setters in the object to load/populate the members of the
JPA object? Or, would Hibernate throw an exception because of the limit on
the number parameters of the constructor?
The question came to mind as I was looking at the @ConstructorResult that
goes within @SqlResultSetMapping -- which I typically use just for come
some custom data objects returned from a namedquery. (My use cases are
typically FAR below 255 columns.)
Again, not a burning item but just wondering if the constructor in Java
could/would obstruct Hibernate in mapping a large number of columns to a
JPA object. What would the AttributeConverter do?
Cordially,
Dennis
