page 214.

on the second paragraph of section 5.2.2:

"The built-in types may not be used to perform arbitrary conversions, such as mapping a VARCHAR database value to a Java Integer property value. You may define your own custom value types for this kind of conversation, as shown later in this chapter."

shouldn't it be "mapping types" instead of "value types"?

"... define your own custom mapping types for this kind ..."

regards.

In Hibernate, mappings types are value types. I tried to make this easier to understand by keeping them separate in the explanation. This is probably some sentence where I didn't change it, left over from the first book. Technically it's correct.
