I'm wondering if it's possible to augment the static type configuration in TypeFactory.BASIC_TYPES.


So far everything I've found about using a UserType requires information about which properties use it in the mapping with <property type="MyUserType" .../> and also on any associated query parameters with something like Hibernate.custom(MyUserType.class).

What I think I'd like to be able to do is register a custom type handler (i.e. UserType) for my associated custom type (in a similar way to the static registration in TypeFactory).

From what I can see in TypeFactory.heuristicType it looks like it should be possible to add such a feature but it doesn't appear to be there at the moment.

Thanks for any info.

Cheers,
Derek

You can file a feature request on JIRA - and please be more precise about what you want to register and how the registration should be done.
