3.3.0 GA with MySQL 5.0 throws table validation exception
---------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HHH-3440
                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3440
             Project: Hibernate3
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: core
    Affects Versions: 3.3.0.GA
         Environment: Hibernate 3.3.0 GA
MySQL 5.0
JBoss 4.2.2
            Reporter: Carlo Luib-Finetti


Hibernate immediately throws an exception at application startup, when it does the schema validation.

org.hibernate.HibernateException: Wrong column type in dpjw.assessment for column NOTES. Found: text, expected: longtext


Comparing the sources of 3.2.0 with 3.3.0 I can see that someone set two java statements into comment. The 3.2 version of MySQLDialect.java looks like this:

   protected void registerVarcharTypes() {
      registerColumnType( Types.VARCHAR, "longtext" );
      registerColumnType( Types.VARCHAR, 16777215, "mediumtext" );
      registerColumnType( Types.VARCHAR, 65535, "text" );
      registerColumnType( Types.VARCHAR, 255, "varchar($l)" );
   }


while the new 3.3.0 version is this:

   protected void registerVarcharTypes() {
      registerColumnType( Types.VARCHAR, "longtext" );
//      registerColumnType( Types.VARCHAR, 16777215, "mediumtext" );
//      registerColumnType( Types.VARCHAR, 65535, "text" );
      registerColumnType( Types.VARCHAR, 255, "varchar($l)" );
   } 

If I uncomment these (and others in the same Java file!), the validation process is ok.

Is there any reason why these statements (and others!) were commented out???
