Controlling the column order when EclipseLink creates tables

I'm using EclipseLink with the "eclipselink.ddl-generation" property set to "create-tables". The order of the columns in the created tables seems random. I want the columns in a particular order - the order in which the fields appear in the Entity class definition.

Is there a way to tell EclipseLink to create the columns in the order in the Entity class definition or some other way to specify column order?

Thanks.

There isn't anything out of the box from EclipseLink to do this. Column order shouldn't matter in a properly normalized database.
