Jakarta Persistence (JPA) Annotation Type

jakarta.persistence.Temporal

Implemented Interfaces:
Annotation
Target:
Method, Field
This annotation must be specified for persistent fields or properties of type Date and Calendar. It may only be specified for fields or properties of these types.

The Temporal annotation may be used in conjunction with the Basic annotation, the Id annotation, or the ElementCollection annotation when the element collection value is of such a temporal type.

Example: 

 @Temporal(DATE)
 protected java.util.Date endDate;
Deprecated:
Newly-written code should use the date/time types defined in java.time.
Since:
Jakarta Persistence (JPA) 1.0
The JPA Persistable Types article explains how to use Temporal.
