Mysql 5.5, how to avoid varchar field truncation error for executing session

Question

Mysql 5.5, how to avoid varchar field truncation error, for executing session.

I'm using java hibernate mysql 5.5

I'm looking for something like:

set SESSION sqlMode="AUTO_TRUNCATE_FIELDS"

instead of getting an error.

Is it possible to do it in a programatic way for the current executing session?

Meanwhile I've implemented via java-connection.mysql as shown here:

userDAO.s.doWork(
        new Work() {
            @Override
            public void execute(Connection arg0) throws SQLException {
                DatabaseMetaData databaseMetaData = arg0.getMetaData();
                ResultSet rs=databaseMetaData.getColumns(null, null, "event", "%");
                while (rs.next()) {
                    if ("title".equals(rs.getString("COLUMN_NAME"))) {
                        titleColumSize=rs.getInt("COLUMN_SIZE");
                    }
                }
        }
        }
    );      

then:

if (title.length()>titleColumSize)
    title=title.substring(0, titleColumSize-7)+" [...]";

If any configuration solution is available I will appreciate!! Thanks!
