Class TypeDefinition

java.lang.Object

org.hibernate.boot.model.TypeDefinition

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class TypeDefinition
extends Object
implements Serializable

Models the information pertaining to a custom type definition supplied by the user. Used to delay instantiation of the actual Type instance. Generally speaking this information would come from annotations (TypeDef) or XML mappings. An alternative form of supplying custom types is programmatically via one of:

• MetadataBuilder.applyBasicType(org.hibernate.type.BasicType)
• MetadataBuilder.applyBasicType(org.hibernate.usertype.UserType, String[])
• MetadataBuilder.applyTypes(TypeContributor)
