[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-4341) There is no annotation to specify default value for a column

[Darren Bell (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-4341?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=35351#action_35351 ] 

Darren Bell commented on HHH-4341:
----------------------------------

If we had a defaultValue property on the @Column annotation, hibernate could use the current dialect to add the default value at the database level.  This would then be database agnostic.

thoughts?
