I am using :
@Length(max = 300)
private String data;
for setting the length of variable data. How can I set the maximum possible length?
I am unsure what to Google for.
Thanks for your help.
Edit: or what type of column is best to use for very long string,.

If you want to use varchar for your column use this to limit the lenght.
@Column(length = 300)
For 300 characters you should be ok with varchar.
For a very long string you may consider TEXT for the column type.
