Hi Steve,
I'm not sure there is a better way to store the data in the database. Doing
any kind of date/time math in anything else but UTC seems fraught with
danger.
See below as to how we handle Java 8 types.
https://github.com/pgjdbc/pgjdbc/blob/db228a4ffd8b356a9028363b35b0eb9055e...
Also tells you which driver I maintain.
As far as my interest in this discussion goes. What is the pgjdbc driver
doing that is not consistent with what hibernate is doing/wants ?
I'd certainly be up for a hibernate compatibility mode.
Thanks,
Dave Cramer

Hi Dave.
Same - I was swamped with stuff at the end of last week.
Yes, from what I was reading postgres is a bit strange in storing temporal
values. Not unique to postgres - many databases do interesting things.
I'm curious how the driver handles binding Java 8 types directly. The
JDBC spec was updated to support these types through the generic
`#setObject` methods (`#getObject` as well?). Does the driver handle this.
Out of curiosity, which jdbc driver are you helping with?
