I have an entity with a field 'openTime' that is a MySQL TIME datatype. 
Hibernate has converted this into an entity field as such:      
@Temporal(TemporalType.TIME)
  |     @Column(name = "OPEN_TIME", length = 0)
  |     public Date getOpenTime() {
  |             return this.openTime;
  |     }
I need to allow a user to enter a time on the page. Instead of allowing free 
text I am using an h:selectOneMenu and a list of times on the half hour (eg. 
"00:00", "00:30", etc). I can select a time from the list and it will save it 
in the database. However when I go to edit the record, the select list is not 
able to select the value that was already saved (ie. set one of the OPTIONs to 
selected="true").

I ran this through the debugger and the problem is that the 
com.sun.facces.renderkit.html_basic.MenuRenderer cannot convert from 
java.util.Date to java.sql.Time. The error produced (and swallowed on line 537) 
is: Cannot convert 1/1/70 7:00 AM of type class java.util.Date to class 
java.sql.Time

What is my best option here? Should I go for a custom converter (I haven't done 
one yet) rather than s:convertDateTime? Or is there an option I can set on the 
entity definition (maybe 'columnDefinition' on @Column)?

Any advice is very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Damian.
