seam gen floats (in many meanings ...)

[limousyf]

Hello,

I notice a weird stuff about my seam-generated entities.

I have float fields in two of my tables :

Forfait :

CREATE TABLE `forfait` (
 `forfait_id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
 `numero_avenant` varchar(60) NOT NULL,
 `numero_commande` varchar(60) default NULL,
 `date_signature` date NOT NULL,
 `montant_total` float default NULL,
 `conditions_generales_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
 `contact_client_id` int(11) default NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY (`forfait_id`),
 KEY `contact_client_id` (`contact_client_id`),
 KEY `conditions_generales_id` (`conditions_generales_id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;

and Regie :

CREATE TABLE `regie` (
 `regie_id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
 `numero_avenant` varchar(60) NOT NULL,
 `numero_commande` varchar(60) default NULL,
 `date_signature` date NOT NULL,
 `date_debut` date default NULL,
 `date_fin` date default NULL,
 `descriptif_intervention` text NOT NULL,
 `montant_total` float NOT NULL,
 `tarif_journalier` float default NULL,
 `conditions_generales_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
 `contact_client_id` int(11) default NULL,
 `collaborateur_id` int(11) default NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY (`regie_id`),
 KEY `contrat_cadre_id` (`conditions_generales_id`),
 KEY `contact_client_id` (`contact_client_id`),
 KEY `collaborateur_id` (`collaborateur_id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;

Here's an extract of the entities :

Forfait :

 @Column(name = "montant_total", precision = 12, scale = 0)
 public Float getMontantTotal() {
 return this.montantTotal;
 }

and Regie :

 @Column(name = "montant_total", nullable = false, precision = 12, scale = 0)
 @NotNull
 public float getMontantTotal() {
 return this.montantTotal;
 }


 @Column(name = "tarif_journalier", precision = 12, scale = 0)
 public Float getTarifJournalier() {
 return this.tarifJournalier;
 }

My question is: why is this a float and not a Float generated in Regie for the montant_total column ?
The exact same column in Forfait generated a Float.
Is this some kind of bug or did I miss something ?

tarif_journalier in Regie can be NULL so I guess a Float is mandatory here, to handle default NULL value.
But for montant_total I don't get it ...

Damn !
I just noticed my montant_total is 'default NULL' in Forfait.

Does that mean seam-gen generates float fields for NOT NULL columns and Float fields for NULL columns ?
