why did you define this as transient?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
I added transient because, without it, a bunch of unit test cases were failing. I also explored an alternative approach that worked without causing any test failures, but it required configuring a very large character length (around 2000 characters) for for this field, like this:
@Column(name = "merged_data", nullable = false, length = 2000)
private String serializedMergedData;
Additionally, the previous PR created for this issue (which was later closed and not merged) also included transient, so I assumed it would be fine to add it rather than configuring an unnecessarily large character length.
If this approach is not ideal, is there a better way to resolve this?
Ok. I'll do it. |
