How to impose NOT NULL constraint on non-primary/non-composite keys

Hello All,

 

In OFBiz frame work, fieldtypeoracle.xml some field types which seems to be
useful for applying NOT NULL constraint

 

<field-type-def type="id-ne" sql-type="VARCHAR2(20)"
java-type="String"><validate method="isNotEmpty" /></field-type-def>

<field-type-def type="id-long-ne" sql-type="VARCHAR2(60)"
java-type="String"><validate method="isNotEmpty" /></field-type-def>

<field-type-def type="id-vlong-ne" sql-type="VARCHAR2(255)"
java-type="String"><validate method="isNotEmpty" /></field-type-def>

 

 

But while using them for non-primary key/non-composite key, NOT NULL
constraint is not at all effective.

 

<entity entity-name="BesDispatcher"

 
package-name="org.ofbiz.order"

 
title="BES_DISPATCHER">

                                                            <field
name="dispatcherId"                     type="id-ne"></field>

                                                            <field
name="dispatcherName"               type="id-vlong-ne"></field>

                                                            <field
name="lastUpdatedStamp"            type="date-time"></field>

                                                            <field
name="lastUpdatedTxStamp"         type="date-time"></field>

                                                            <field
name="createdStamp"                   type="date-time"></field>

                                                            <field
name="createdTxStamp"               type="date-time"></field>

                                                            

                                                            <prim-key
field="dispatcherId"/>

 

                                                            <index name="UK_
BES_DISPATCHER" unique="true">

 
<index-field name="dispatcherName"/>

                                                            </index>

                        </entity>

 

I like to apply NOT NULL constraint for dispatcherName. But it is not
possible by using id-vlon-ne.

 

Please suggest?

 

-thanks & best regards,
