Hardy, Today the actual bridge fails during set() if the object passed is not of a specified subset of types (Blob, etc). This means the failure happens at the first indexing usage.
Is that ok / preferable if I do these type checking at the bridge creation time - in the BridgeProvider. The only thing I cannot handle here is if the user declares the return type as Object and the runtime type happens to be an acceptable type. It seems like a small flexibility loss and we would gain clearer error messages: if something is annotated @TikaBridge and we don’t support the type we will fail fast. Can i make that change? _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
