[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-3125) BigDecimal support for id generator from DB sequence

[Graham Collinson (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3125?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=31082#action_31082 ] 

Graham Collinson commented on HHH-3125:
---------------------------------------

An oracle column with Number(22,0) isn't floating point but is still reversed as a BigDecimal.  BigDecimal support in IdentifierGeneratorFactory would seem to make sense in this case.  Unless the sql type is being incorrectly reversed.  Perhaps it should be a BigInteger instead?
I will be able to use a GenericGenerator to get round this.

> Is there possibility to add BigDecimal support for id generator?
