How to define a Not Null column in CF9 ORM?

Question

I tried added @required true to a property, but the table generated by CF9 ORM is still Nullable.

Any way to make a column a non-nullable column? Thanks.

Answer 1

If you're using the Javadoc style:

@notnull true

and if you're not you can add an attribute to the property:

notnull="true"

When using notnull I also double it up with a:

required="true"

It certainly isn't mandatory - I just think it makes the intent more clear.

Answer 2

@notnull true

• optional
• default: false
• info: A Boolean value that specifies whether a notnull constraint should be added for this column.
