Re: [eclipselink-dev] [eclipselink-users] EclipseLink 2.5 now Available
A colleague just pointed my at the autoApply property of the @Converter annotation. It can be used to have a converter be automatically applied to a particular data type. I suspect that is what you are looking for. It is supported in EclipseLink 2.5.

Hi Joseph,

   EclipseLink has always had a pretty extensive converter API, JPA 2.1 has
simply formalized more of it.  It should be reasonably easy to write converters
for the various joda-time data structures.

   Can you please describe a bit more what you mean by converters
auto-registering themselves?

Nice!

I'm seriously thinking about migrating our software to use EclipseLink instead
of Hibernate (too many open issues and doesn't handle lazy-loading outside
transaction safely, https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-7971)
Are there any docs on how to use joda-time (2.x) with EclipseLink >= 2.5
(jpa-2.1) and it's new Converter-API? In Hibernate it's possible to have the
converters register automatically and the usertype-library
(http://jadira.sourceforge.net/) provides converters for joda-time, is it
possible to have joda-time converters auto-registering themselvs in
EclipseLink-2.5 with JPA-2.1?
Â
Thanks.
