Create an AttributeType with the given name, Class, nillability, and fieldLength meta-data. This method will itself call createAttributeType(String,Class,boolean,int,Object) with null as the default value. To use your own default value, use the above method, providing your default value.

Specified by:

createAttributeType in class AttributeTypeFactory

Parameters:

name - The name of the AttributeType to create.

clazz - the class of the AttributeType to create.

isNillable - whether the AttributeType should allow nulls.

Returns:
