Re: [hibernate-dev] Adding support for Java 8's Optional to ORM
We'd also love to support some features (especially the new user types
such as Date/Time) in Hibernate Search.
I don't think we should require Java8 for all users though, so I'd
like this to be an independent module.. troublesome with Maven though,
so this wasn't done yet.

Hi,
Java 8 introduced a new type Optional which may be used to represent
objects which may be set or not set:
private Optional<String> name;
Hibernate Validator will allow to validate properties of this type in the
next release. Now someone brought up the question whether the same is
planned for ORM, so one can use Optional in entity properties.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
