JPA - apply @Column(columnDefinition = "Boolean") to all Basic Attributes of type Boolean

Question

is it possible to set the DDL type Boolean to all @Basic attributes of type java.lang.Boolean?

I'm using Hibernate, which by default creates an sql bit as DDL type.

Update

I currently solved it Hibernate specific by using a custom org.hibernate.dialect.Dialect with:

registerColumnType(Types.BOOLEAN, "boolean");

Because I asked for a generic JPA solution, but just found a specific Hibernate one, I'm reluctant to do so. — Stefan K., Jan 12 '16 at 12:56
I don't think there's any JPA spec for column type generation. — Vlad Mihalcea, Jan 12 '16 at 13:02

I currently solved it with a Hibernate specific way by using a custom org.hibernate.dialect.Dialect:

public class MySqlDialect extends MySQL57InnoDBDialect {
    public MySqlDialect() {
        registerColumnType(Types.BOOLEAN, "boolean");
    }
}

I registered it with the Spring Boot property:

spring.jpa.database-platform=my.MySqlDialect
