Is this possible? Situation is that I want to store some XML in my database, but keep it as generic as possible in case we need to deploy it to a difference backend.

I realise I could store it as a String, but I believe MSSQL/Oracle optimise and validate XML if you store it this way, and let you search on it?

If you provide an implementation of org.hibernate.usertype.UserType you can provide logic for mapping an arbitrary Java type to one or more database columns.

You can view a few examples of UserTypes here:

Or just Google "hibernate usertype" and find many more. :)

Do you know of any library implementations of XML which would prevent the need of rolling our own implementation?
