Class CustomType

java.lang.Object
  org.hibernate.type.AbstractType
      org.hibernate.type.CustomType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, DiscriminatorType, IdentifierType, LiteralType, Type, VersionType

public class CustomType
extends AbstractType
implements IdentifierType, DiscriminatorType, VersionType

Adapts UserType to the generic Type interface, in order to isolate user code from changes in the internal Type contracts.
