I was refering to "custom user types" from the reference, this is at least my understanding how Hibernate maps the Object to SQL in general. To sum up what I would like to be able to do "mapping" of an entity as fallows: class Employee { Optional<Employee> manager; LocalDate createDate; LocalDate updateDate; } So some extra org.hibernate.type.Type definitions will be needed similar to those that you had defined in hibernate-java8. > > > > > > If you could help me with one thing on the regarding the Optional > attributes mapping.
