we have the same situation.
We use the "type-safe" enum pattern in our application,
i.e., a class DayOfWeek with a private constructor
and seven static fields of type DayOfWeek, namely MONDAY,
TUESDAY and so on.
Then we implement a class
DayOfWeekToIntConversion implements
org.apache.ojb.broker.accesslayer.conversions.FieldConversion
and declare that FieldConversion in the corresponding
field-descriptor in repository_user.xml.
HTH,
Olli
