## What The **Entity Classes from Database** wizard always mapped temporal columns (`DATE`/`TIME`/`TIMESTAMP`) to `java.util.Date` with a `@Temporal` annotation, forcing users to refactor the generated entities by hand. This adds a **Date/Time API** mapping option, sitting next to the existing *Collection Type* option (the UI pattern requested in the issue), letting the user choose `java.time` types instead: | SQL column | `java.time` | |---|---| | `java.sql.Date` | `java.time.LocalDate` | | `java.sql.Time` | `java.time.LocalTime` | | `java.sql.Timestamp` | `java.time.LocalDateTime` | `java.time` types are mapped natively by JPA 2.2+, so **no** `@Temporal` annotation is emitted for them. The default remains `java.util.Date`, so existing behavior is unchanged unless the user opts in. ## How - New `DateTimeType` enum (`LEGACY` / `JAVA_8`) in the `entitygenerator` package. - `RelatedCMPHelper` carries the choice; `MappingOptionsPanel` exposes the combo box and wires it through `readSettings`/`storeSettings`, mirroring `CollectionType`. - `JavaPersistenceGenerator.getMemberType()` / `getMemberTemporalType()` branch on the selected family; `@Temporal` is suppressed for `java.time`. - Help page (`f1_jpa005.htm`) documents the new option. ## Test - Existing `JPAGenTest` cases updated for the new parameter. - New `JPAGenTest.testGenerateJavaTimeTypes` generates an entity with `DATE`/`TIME`/`TIMESTAMP` columns under `JAVA_8` and asserts the generated source uses the `java.time` types and contains no `java.util.Date` or `@Temporal`.
