Nicolas Helleringer commented on OGM-12:
----------------------------------------

Maybe allowing the user to choose how he want to store is the path to go (with underlying storage capability description juste like SQL dialect in HHH)

For the types that do have a 'standard' string encoding provided by Java that garanties the two way from and to string coherence, I think we should stay on that.

But, therefor the question is, if we do want to e.g. store something from Java and then (the data beeing replicated to another computer / technology) be read in .NET (it could be !), then the question is :

- Is the way that Java does stringify the type a standard outside the Java world or is it limited to it ?

I shall have a look on that on the types I have allready done (.NET and C++ focus I think).
