Been seeing a lot of questions lately on StackOverflow about native SQL queries and the "No Dialect mapping for JDBC type: XYZ" error.
Is there a reason we don't do a best effort to resolve these using the drivers database metadata? In fact we already read and parse this information during JdbcServices init (org.hibernate.engine.jdbc.spi.ExtractedDatabaseMetaData#getTypeInfoSet). We could resolve the unknown type to its org.hibernate.engine.jdbc.internal.TypeInfo and use the TypeInfo's reported javaType to resolve the Hibernate type to use. WDYT? Then the dialect really just needs to become involved in the exception case(s). This is really another case of what I want to do eventually where we blend information from the JDBC driver's DatabaseMetaData and Dialect. -- st...@hibernate.org http://hibernate.org _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
