Description

The interface PlatformImplBase throws an error [ java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException] when a default value is empty
in the method postprocessModelFromDatabase :

1675 : if ((defaultValue != null) &&
1676 : defaultValue.startsWith("'") && defaultValue.endsWith("'") )
1677 :

{ 1678 : defaultValue = defaultValue.substring(1, defaultValue.length() - 1); 1679 : column.setDefaultValue(defaultValue); 1680 : }

I was trying to get a model from my MySql database but for a column the default value is empty.
( !!! startsWith and endsWith return both true if the string is empty )
