---------------------------------
    Resolution: Fixed

>                 Key: OLINGO-605
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OLINGO-605
>             Project: Olingo
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: odata2-jpa
>    Affects Versions: V2 2.0.3
>            Reporter: Manuel Blechschmidt
>            Assignee: Michael Bolz
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: GIS, custom, spatial, types
>
> I am currently developing a software where I save GIS coordinates as part of 
> my entities. I want to send these geometries as a string through OData to a 
> client.
> Technically I do the following:
> OpenGis -> Hibernate Spatial -> JPA -> Olingo -> JavaScript -> OpenLayers
> I already have an XmlAdapter that maps my Geometry to WKT. I want to use this 
> as well for Olingo serialization
> I copied the following file in my workspace and extended the 
> convertToEdmSimpleType function:
> org.apache.olingo.odata2.jpa.processor.core.access.model.JPATypeConvertor
> {code:java}
>  public static EdmSimpleTypeKind
>       ...
>     } else if(jpaType.equals(Geometry.class)) {
>       // "OData - JPA Type Converter: Type [class 
> com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Geometry] not supported"
>       return EdmSimpleTypeKind.String;
>     }
>     throw 
> ODataJPAModelException.throwException(ODataJPAModelException.TYPE_NOT_SUPPORTED
>         .addContent(jpaType.toString()), null);
>   }
> {code}
> This is quick and dirty and it would be nice if there would be a cleaner 
> solution to do so.
