title: Is it possible to globally change the default length for varchar fields (hbm2ddl)?
body: <p>By adding the annotation "@Column(length = 1000)" to String variables you can increase the maximum length of the resulting varchar fields from 255 to 1000 (hbm2ddl):</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Column(length = 1000) // =&gt; varchar2(1000)
  private String field1;
  
  @Column(length = 1000) // =&gt; varchar2(1000)
  private String field2;
  
  @Column(length = 1000) // =&gt; varchar2(1000)
  private String field3;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is it possible to globally change the default length for all resulting varchar fields instead?</p>
