The just-released proposed final draft has a new annotation allowing enum fields to be persisted ordinals or strings.
public enum EmployeeStatus {FULL_TIME, PART_TIME, CONTRACT} public enum SalaryRate {JUNIOR, SENIOR, MANAGER, EXECUTIVE} @Entity public class Employee { ... public EmployeeStatus getStatus() {...} @Enumerated(STRING) public SalaryRate getPayScale() {...} ... } When do y'all expect to release a new EJB3 alpha that roughly conforms with the PFD?
