How do I set the default mapping of entity bean fields of type String to VARCHAR or TEXT instead of VARCHAR(255) on PostgreSQL and MySQL databases? I do not want an arbitrary 255 char limit to the length of a varchar string. I read a post which suggested using an annotation to set the @Length to 256 or greater which makes it use a text field, but I do not want to declare this on every string field.
