I use String for primary/composite key fields... there are size constraints
in many DB's about the total length of a PK
so i still need String mapped to varchars, plus it will be DB accepted to
use it as PrimKey (opposed to BLOBs)
The mix approach doesn't sound nice, but it works and is flexible enough to
handle most odd situations
My 2c,
JP

Or you can edit orion-ejb-jar.xml and change the type of the field in
the DB. The schema set it to varchar(255), but you can change it to
any oracle type you want. look for a line like
<cmp-field-mapping ..... persistence-type="varchar2(255)" ..>
change that and voila!
