JIRA JDO-709 "Standardize field/property converters" https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-709 New comments from Yubao Liu, New Pull request #60 "[JDO-709] Enable Element.TYPE for @Convert" https://github.com/apache/db-jdo/pull/60 Some history about this issue: The original goal for having Element.Type apply to @Convert was to allow a PersistenceCapable class to have all of the field convert annotations in one place at the definition of the class instead of needing the annotation on each field/property. But this requires new properties on @Convert to identify the field plus the converter for each field. We decided that this use case was not really needed. But the real use case recently identified by Yubao is to annotate the field type for a user-defined class that will by default always use the converter regardless of which PersistenceCapable class the field is defined in. This use case requires the Element.Type to be supported by @Convert. Note that the JPA annotation supports this use case and therefore there should be minimal changes needed to DataNucleus to support JDO in addition to JPA which is already supported. To properly support this use case we should have a TCK test for it. There are already test cases for AttributeConverters which should have a new test added. AI Craig update the JIRA with suggestions. 3. JIRA JDO-818 "Use Google Java Style as the code format conventions for the JDO project" https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-818 Pull Request #59: always run the format check in addition to the TCK. Any PR create or pushing to a branch associated with the PR will trigger the check. Good to go. AI Tobias merge to main. 4.
