convert

Convert the DB default literal to platform specific type or function.

This is intended for the DB column default clause in DDL.

toSqlLiteral

public static String toSqlLiteral(String defaultValue,
                                  Class<?> propertyType,
                                  int sqlType)

This method checks & convert the DbDefault.value() to a valid SQL literal. This is mainly to quote string literals and verify integer/dates for correctness.

Note: There are some special cases:

• Normal Quoting: @DbDefault("User's default") on a String propery returns: default 'User''s default'
  (the same on an integer property will throw a NumberFormatException)
• Special case null: @DbDefault("null") will return this: default null
  If you need really the String "null", you have to specify @DbDefault("'null'") which gives you the default 'null' statement.
• Any statement, that begins and ends with single quote will not be checked or get quoted again.
• A statement that begins with "$RAW:", e.g @DbDefault("$RAW:N'SANDNES'") will lead to a default N'SANDNES' in DDL. Note that this is platform specific!
