@Length not working for embedded objects
----------------------------------------

                 Key: ANN-652
                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/ANN-652
             Project: Hibernate Annotations
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.2.0.ga
         Environment: hibernate-annotations-3,2,0.GA, MaxDB 7.6.00.27/Linux
            Reporter: Dirk Lachowski
            Priority: Minor


When creating an @Embeddable with a @Length annotated field, the Length is ignored by the entity in which the @Embeddable is embedded.

Sample:

@Embeddable
public class Money {
...
       @Length(min=1, max=3)
	protected String getCurrencyName() {
		return currencyName;
	}
...
}


@Entity
@Configurable
public class SalesOrder {
...
        @Embedded
	@AttributeOverrides( {
		@AttributeOverride(name="amount", column = @Column(name="amount") ),
		@AttributeOverride(name="currencyName", column = @Column(name="currency") )
	})
	public Money getValue() {
		return value;
	}
...
}

The generated schema is as follows:

create table DDIC.vbak (
        id fixed(19,0) not null,
        creationDate timestamp null,
        lastChangedDate timestamp null,
        salesOrderTypeName varchar(6) null,
        orderDate date null,
        orderNumber varchar(10) null,
        orderReference varchar(30) null,
        schemaName varchar(10) null,
        amount fixed(19,0) null,
        currency varchar(255) null,                          <-- should be varchar(3)
        editable boolean not null,
        customer_id fixed(19,0) null,
        dlvAddr_id fixed(19,0) null,
        owner_id fixed(19,0) null,
        pricelist_id fixed(19,0) null,
        primary key (id)
    );
