 Priority:  medium                            |   Milestone:  PostGIS 1.5.2
Component:  postgis                           |     Version:  1.5.X        
 Keywords:  geography GeometryType java jdbc  |  
----------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
 We used the GeometryType Hibernate UserType that gets delivered with
 Postgis 1.5.x (java/ejb3) to store and retrieve Geometry column data.
 This works fine but unfortunately it does not seem to support the new
 Geography data type.

 We tried storing Point and LineString Geometry objects (SRID set to 4326)
 but we get an exception that a bytea can't be casted to a Geography.
 We use the org.postgis.DriverWrapper Driver class name which is supposed
 to automatically load support for the spatial types.
