It occurs to me that I should probably share this. I've been using Jorge's wonderful Scala wrapper for JodaTime and I needed to persist DateTime and LocalDate. I found a Hibernate project that makes this possible. (Note that Jorge's wrapper is a work in progress and doesn't cover everything in JodaTime, but you can just use the JodaTime classes directly, which I did for DateTimeFormatter and DateTimeFormatterBuilder.)
In pom.xml: <dependency> <groupId>org.scala-tools</groupId> <artifactId>time</artifactId> <version>2.7.5-0.2-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>joda-time</groupId> <artifactId>joda-time</artifactId> <version>1.6</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>joda-time</groupId> <artifactId>joda-time-hibernate</artifactId> <version>1.1</version> </dependency> In the JPA entity classes: @Type{val `type`="org.joda.time.contrib.hibernate.PersistentDateTime"} @Column{val name="created_at", val updatable = false} var createdAt: DateTime = DateTime.now Gets persisted as a "timestamp without time zone" in PostgreSQL. @Type{val `type`="org.joda.time.contrib.hibernate.PersistentLocalDate"} @Column{val name = "born_on"} var bornOn: LocalDate = new LocalDate() Gets persisted as a "date" in PostgreSQL. http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/ http://github.com/jorgeortiz85/scala-time http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/contrib/hibernate/index.html Chas. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Lift" group.
