> Hi,
> I am willing to register custom types automatically when our application starts. We are using JPA2 and the EntityManager.
> To do so I can use a method on the Configuration object (registerTypeOverride). When configuring the JPA container, the PersistenceProvider can be extended. That's what I am doing but I came to this code (Ejb3Configuration on 3.6.5)
> {code:java}
>        /**
> 	 * This API is intended to give a read-only configuration.
> 	 * It is sueful when working with SchemaExport or any Configuration based
> 	 * tool.
> 	 * DO NOT update configuration through it.
> 	 */
> 	public AnnotationConfiguration getHibernateConfiguration() {
> 		//TODO make it really read only (maybe through proxying)
> 		return cfg;
> 	}
> {code}
> I believe there is a TODO here that may lead to a change that would disallow me to use the configuration object to register new types on startup. If this TODO gets ever resolved (why?), what could I do to register new types? 
> Thanks
