Class CustomType

Implemented Interfaces:
IdentifierType, Serializable, DiscriminatorType, IdentifierType, LiteralType, Type, VersionType

public class CustomType
extends AbstractType
implements IdentifierType, DiscriminatorType, VersionType

Adapts UserType to the generic Type interface, in order to isolate user code from changes in the internal Type contracts.
