[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-5190) Provide annotation support for <discriminator>'s force insert and type features

[Hardy Ferentschik (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5190?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=38531#action_38531 ] 

Hardy Ferentschik commented on HHH-5190:
----------------------------------------

Is the type not handled via {{DiscriminatorType}}? Admittedly, the values of {{DiscriminatorType}} are limited to string, char and int, wheras Hibernate also allows byte, short and boolean. However, is it really necessary to add potential confusion adding another Hibernate specific annotation? Would an exception be thrown if the {{DiscriminatorType}} of {{DiscriminatorColumn}} is not matching the value of the custom annotation?

Any suggestions for the annotation name for the _force_ option? Just {{@ForceDiscriminator}}?
