Failover @Type for h2?

Question

I have to do the @Type for PostgreSQL, to get it's native UUID type, but this caused query problems with H2

@Id
@Override
@Type(type = "pg-uuid")
@GeneratedValue(generator = "uuid2")
@GenericGenerator(name = "uuid2", strategy = "uuid2")
@Column(name = "task_id", columnDefinition = "uuid")
public UUID getId() {
    return id;
}

here's the cause of the exception:

org.h2.jdbc.JdbcSQLException: Hexadecimal string contains non-hex character: "aced0005-7372-000e-74c2-aa3c957d4f00"; SQL statement: select character0_.task_id as task_id1_0_0_, character0_.name as name2_0_0_ from characters character0_ where character0_.task_id=? 

What can I do to get the best of both world and have the same entity for H2 and PostgreSQL?

Answer 1

You could try to extend H2Dialect and bind varchar to type Type.other pg-uuid is using Type.OTHER

public class H2PostgresDialect extends H2Dialect {

    public H2PostgresDialect() {
        super();
        registerColumnType(Types.OTHER, "varchar(255)");
    }
}

Remember to use register custom dialect class instead of standard one

But why just don't use

@Id
private UUID id = UUID.randomUUID();
