Hi,
Thanks for trying to help Craig, but I had tried the @enumerated annotation
already with the same error message. The @enumerated annotation doesn't
return an enum type to Postgres, but instead returns the ordinal value (by
default) or a string value of the enum. This means I get either the error
message:
Caused by: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: column "typeofname" is
of type typeofnames but expression is of type character varying
(if I use enumtype STRING)
Or
Caused by: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: column "typeofname" is
of type typeofnames but expression is of integer
