Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
COLUMN	Stores the time zone in a separate column.
NATIVE	Stores the time zone via the with time zone SQL types which retain the information.
NORMALIZE	Does not store the time zone, and instead: when persisting to the database, normalizes JDBC timestamps to the JdbcSettings.JDBC_TIME_ZONE or to the JVM default time zone otherwise.
NORMALIZE_UTC	Doesn't store the time zone, but instead normalizes to UTC.

Method Summary

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

Enum Constant Detail

NATIVE

public static final TimeZoneStorageStrategy NATIVE

Stores the time zone via the with time zone SQL types which retain the information.

COLUMN

public static final TimeZoneStorageStrategy COLUMN

Stores the time zone in a separate column.

NORMALIZE

public static final TimeZoneStorageStrategy NORMALIZE

Does not store the time zone, and instead:

• when persisting to the database, normalizes JDBC timestamps to the JdbcSettings.JDBC_TIME_ZONE or to the JVM default time zone otherwise.
• when reading back from the database, sets the offset or zone of OffsetDateTime/ZonedDateTime properties to the JVM default time zone.

Provided partly for backward compatibility with older versions of Hibernate.

NORMALIZE_UTC

public static final TimeZoneStorageStrategy NORMALIZE_UTC

Doesn't store the time zone, but instead normalizes to UTC.

Method Detail

values

public static TimeZoneStorageStrategy[] 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 (TimeZoneStorageStrategy c : TimeZoneStorageStrategy.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static TimeZoneStorageStrategy 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
