The Joda-Time Hibernate library no longer works with the latest release of
Hibernate, version 3.6. This was brought up on the SourceForce issue tracker in
bug ID
3090209<https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3090209&group_id=97367&atid=617889>.
The resolution suggested there was to stop using Joda-Time Hibernate and
switch to another project called User Type.
However Joda-Time Hibernate does actually work fine if you compile it against
Hibernate 3.6. No code changes are required, it just that the Hibernate method
signatures have changed slightly and so Joda-Time Hibernate needs to be bound
against the new return types. In particular, Hiberate.TIMESTAMP used to return
a NullableType, and since 3.6 it returns TimestampType.
Simply updating the Hibernate dependency in Maven (as shown below) will make
Joda-Time Hibernate work with Hibernate 3.6:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
<version>3.6.0.Final</version>
</dependency>
This is obviously a pretty simple fix. So can I suggest that someone publishes
an official release of Joda-Time Hibernate on SourceForge that has been
compiled again Hibernate 3.6? Barring that, at least tell people on the website
that the library works with Hibernate 3.6 if they recompile it themselves?
Cheers
Charles
