Enum TimeZoneStorageType

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<TimeZoneStorageType>

org.hibernate.annotations.TimeZoneStorageType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<TimeZoneStorageType>

public enum TimeZoneStorageType
extends Enum<TimeZoneStorageType>

Describes the storage of timezone information for zoned datetime types.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
AUTO	Stores the time zone either with NATIVE if Dialect.getTimeZoneSupport() is TimeZoneSupport.NATIVE, otherwise uses the COLUMN strategy.
COLUMN	Stores the time zone in a separate column; works in conjunction with TimeZoneColumn.
NATIVE	Stores the timezone by using the with time zone SQL column type.
NORMALIZE	Does not store the time zone, and instead normalizes timestamps to the JDBC timezone.
NORMALIZE_UTC	Does not store the time zone, and instead normalizes timestamps to UTC.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static TimeZoneStorageType	valueOf(String name)	Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
static TimeZoneStorageType[]	values()	Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Enum Constant Detail

NATIVE

public static final TimeZoneStorageType NATIVE

Stores the timezone by using the with time zone SQL column type. Error if Dialect.getTimeZoneSupport() is not TimeZoneSupport.NATIVE.

NORMALIZE

public static final TimeZoneStorageType NORMALIZE

Does not store the time zone, and instead normalizes timestamps to the JDBC timezone.

NORMALIZE_UTC

public static final TimeZoneStorageType NORMALIZE_UTC

Does not store the time zone, and instead normalizes timestamps to UTC.

COLUMN

public static final TimeZoneStorageType COLUMN

Stores the time zone in a separate column; works in conjunction with TimeZoneColumn.

AUTO

public static final TimeZoneStorageType AUTO

Stores the time zone either with NATIVE if Dialect.getTimeZoneSupport() is TimeZoneSupport.NATIVE, otherwise uses the COLUMN strategy.

Method Detail

values

public static TimeZoneStorageType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (TimeZoneStorageType c : TimeZoneStorageType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static TimeZoneStorageType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
