Re: [hibernate-dev] boolean type support

Obviously that only works if there is not already an

supported way, or a way that we want to support. Essentially that would
mean a condition where we convert the value twice in each direction. But
in case we miss some ase, I wanted to ask the list.
So if a user defines a
converter for Boolean=>Enum for example, that
would not work on e.g. Oracle since on such a DB the column type is integer?
I am not sure if a converter for Boolean as source type would make
sense, but if allowing it adds a lot of complexity I'd say don't support
it for now and wait for a user to complain. Seems like a pretty edgy
edge case to me :D
