Adrian Crum commented on OFBIZ-3245: ------------------------------------ Okay, how about a sql-object-type attribute? The current sql-type attribute contains the type needed for a CREATE statement, and what I need is the Java object type the database vendor uses to represent it. For example, Derby uses BigDecimal for the numeric type, so it would look something like: {code} <field-type-def type="numeric" sql-type="NUMERIC(20,0)" sql-object-type="BigDecimal" java-type="Long"></field-type-def> {code} I could set it up as an optional attribute. In the absence of the sql-object-type attribute, the java-type attribute will be used. The duration type would look like: {code} <field-type-def type="duration" sql-type="NUMERIC(20,0)" sql-object-type="BigDecimal" java-type="TimeDuration"></field-type-def> {code} What do you think? > Sandbox: Integrating The New Conversion Framework Into The Entity Engine > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: OFBIZ-3245 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3245 > Project: OFBiz > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: framework > Affects Versions: SVN trunk > Reporter: Adrian Crum > Assignee: Adrian Crum > Priority: Minor > Attachments: conversion.patch, conversion.patch > > > This issue contains a patch intended for evaluation before it is committed. > See comments for details. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
