[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Assigned: (HHH-4540) Allow the revision timestamp to be a Date

Allow the revision timestamp to be a Date ----------------------------------------- Key: HHH-4540 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-4540 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Improvement Components: envers Reporter: Nicolas Rougé Assignee: Adam Warski Priority: Minor Attachments: envers-timestamp.patch The revision timestamp, annotated with @RevisionTimestamp, can only be a long value, that is stored directly in the database. If someone want to query directly the database to get audit information between two dates, he has to convert the dates into long, and that conversion is not native on most of the databases. The attached patch allows you to define the revision timestamp as a Date (java.util or java.sql), so it is stored as a real date in the database.
