[hibernate-dev] Contributed with HiRDB Dialect

Hi, my name is Tomoto at Software Division in Hitachi. I have posted a dialect for HiRDB (Hitachi's RDBMS, see *1) to JIRA. http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3465 I would appreciate it if someone in the team could take a look at it for evaluation, and I would be happy to solve the issues you saw if any. I really wish this dialect to be incorporated into Hibernate so that our customers could easily use Hibernate on HiRDB. This dialect comes with a feature to allow the user to declare the parameter types of user-defined functions in the properies file. It was necessary because HiRDB required ? parameters to be qualified by 'as <type>' in user-defined function invocations. If there were other databases that required the similar feature, and if you thought my implementation was good enough to let them use, I might be able to make an entry point on the Dialect base class so that other subclasses could use it more easily. *1 http://www.hitachi.co.jp/Prod/comp/soft1/global/prod/hirdb/ Thank you in advance, -- Tomoto Shimizu Washio
