> Key: JDO-826
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-826
> Project: JDO
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: api
> Affects Versions: JDO 3.2
> Reporter: Tilmann Zäschke
> Assignee: Tilmann Zäschke
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: JDO 3.2.2
>
>
> The javadoc of the @Convert annotation claims that it can be placed on types,
> e.g.
> {code:java}
> @Convert(value = ConvertiblePointToStringConverter.class)
> public class ConvertiblePoint {
> ...
> }
> {code}
> While this feature is desirable, there is currently no implementation of it
> in the reference implementation.
> For now, the javadoc should be fixed by removing the section about
> @Target(ElementType.TYPE,...).
> Once the implementation is resourced (volunteers welcome!) the section can be
> put back in place.
