Hi, I've never used Hibernate but it seems to be that table of
functions could be generated automatically.

A few other things:
- You map "text" to CLOB. Not exactly sure what CLOB refers to but text
column are not generally used for large objects. I mean, you can store
up to a GB in them, but most such columns are not going to be large.

- You have supportsRowValueConstructorSyntax commented out. It does, if
you have a recent enough version, or do you mean something else?

Have a nice day,
