It might be the database you're using that has that limit, and/or the
@Column annotation you have.
I'm just working on an entity right now that has a "memento" property, of
length 1024. its annotation is:
@javax.jdo.annotations.Column(allowsNull="false", length=1024)
@MultiLine(numberOfLines=20)
@Hidden(where=Where.ALL_TABLES)
@MemberOrder(name="Target",sequence = "4")
@Disabled
public String getMemento() { ... }
This is fine on HSQLDB.
