Hi,

I haven't used this, but it seems that you should start looking at EnumValueHandler: http://openjpa.apache.org/builds/latest/docs/javadoc/org/apache/openjpa/jdbc/meta/strats/EnumValueHandler.html

Does anyone here know where to find examples of annotating a field with a custom ValueHandler?

Maybe it's the "special OpenJPA mapping" info the OP is looking for. I
know
I'm interested in it.

Yes, I'm probably going to have to find a reasonable solution for this.
My database stores the custom ordinal values, and I have to map to a
real Enum value.
