title: How to set column size in Hibernate without using Annotations
body: <p>As mentioned I need to set the size of the column in Hibernate , default for String it takes varchar(255) While creating the table, </p>
  
  <p>I need to make it as varchar(8000) on the time of table creation.</p>
  
  <p>I've already found couple of answers using 'Annotations'- like</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><code>@Column(length = 255)</code></li>
  <li><code>@Lob</code></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>But is there any other way to do the same without using 'Annotations'</p>
  
  <p>Thank You.</p>
