Hibernate and JPA 2.1 @Converter

[xsalefter]

Hi everyone,

I just try to implements converter in my project. Unfortunately it's doesn't work even with simple case. Is this bug, or there's something wrong with my code? The test case is here:

https://github.com/xsalefter/spring-jpa-converter

Running NonManagedUserDAOTest always put upper case value in the database. On the other side, if I change 'MALE' to 'Male' in database, this would lead to

"Unknown name value [Male] for enum class [org.xsalefter.springjpaconverter.entity.Gender]".

Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks.

PS:

- Hibernate Version = 4.3.5.Final.

- I put "JBoss  AS 7" in "In A Place" below, since "Hibernate" is unavailable.

Type Converter cannot be applied to attributes annotated with @Enumerated. So you have to make sure that there is no @Enumerated annotation at our entity attribute of type Gender.

Ok thanks Frank. I even never thought that .
