TypeBootstrapContext constructor not called in custom types with Hibernate 6

[z0mb1ek]

I use spring-orm with hypersistence-utils for additional types. There is class JsonBinaryType that has constructor:

JsonBinaryType(org.hibernate.type.spi.TypeBootstrapContext typeBootstrapContext)

The documentation says that If a custom Type defines a constructor which takes the TypeBootstrapContext argument, Hibernate will use this instead of the default constructor. But there is call on default contructor and it is not working.

I tested version 6.0.9 - it works, but 6.0.10 and 6.0.11 does not. Is it a bug?

relates to vladmihalcea/hypersistence-utils#644

@z0mb1ek the documentation you've referenced is from Hibernate and so is the behavior.

I tested version 6.0.9 - it works, but 6.0.10 and 6.0.11 does not. Is it a bug?

Did you test with the same hibernate version? If so can you please share a small sample that reproduces the problem?

@snicoll Yes, i tested with same hibernate version, just change spring-orm version

Like I said, please share a small sample we can run ourselves.

Hello,

I think I've a similar issue upgrading from Spring Boot 3.0.8 to 3.0.9. The problem can be "fixed" by overriding spring-orm from 6.0.11 to 6.0.10.

After doing some debugging I think that the behaviour change comes from this commit dff7aa4 . For some reason before Spring was using the following constructor to instanciate the bean https://github.com/vladmihalcea/hypersistence-utils/blob/master/hypersistence-utils-hibernate-60/src/main/java/io/hypersistence/utils/hibernate/type/json/JsonBinaryType.java#L56 but now it's using this one https://github.com/vladmihalcea/hypersistence-utils/blob/master/hypersistence-utils-hibernate-60/src/main/java/io/hypersistence/utils/hibernate/type/json/JsonBinaryType.java#L60 .

I've no idea if this new behaviour was intended or not. Can you provide some guidance ?

Thanks.

It's really hard to say without looking at an actual sample. There are too many guesses at this point.
