Thanks for your comments. In jOOQ 3.13, you will need to implement a data type binding if you wish to use H2's native JSON support: https://www.jooq.org/doc/3.13/manual/sql-building/queryparts/custom-bindings/
In jOOQ 3.14, we will offer much better JSON support in all dialects, probably including H2. I believe you've already commented on this issue here: https://github.com/jOOQ/jOOQ/issues/8948 Thanks, Lukas On Tue, May 19, 2020 at 7:46 AM 52 Cards <52ca...@gmail.com> wrote: > If I don't decorate it at all, like values(myObj.id, myObj.username, > myObj.jsonmeta) then `values` fails to compile because it expects JSON > data type. > > I can compile using this syntax: > JSON.valueOf(JSONObject.toJSONString(myObj.jsonmeta)) > (alternatively, using kotlinx.serialization): JSON.valueOf(Json.stringify( > MyObj.serializer(), this)) > as JOOQ at least recognizes this as a JSON object.
