I'm trying to reverse engineer an application using seam-gen generate-entities from a mysql database and get some errors that's related to the column types.

The database is generated from a Hibernate based webapplication or EJB3 based application. (I'm trying two different applications).

I get errors like:

"Wrong column type: description, expected: varchar(65535)" if the property is a string with type = "text"

So what is mapped like this in the original hibernate project:
@Type(type="text")

can't be reverse engineered back to the same type.

Any ideas on how to proceed / avoid these column type problems.
