Hibernate version:2.1.7


Name and version of the database you are using:Oracle 10G

I'm trying to call an oracle function when loading and persisting an object. I'd like to call a user defined oracle function when field x is loaded. For example, if a field is encrypted in the database via ENCRYPT() how can I specify that when field x is set a call to ENCRYPT should be called on save or update and a call to DECRYPT should be called when the object is loaded?

Thanks

Derek
