>             Project: JDO
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: api
>    Affects Versions: JDO 3.2
>            Reporter: Tilmann Zäschke
>            Assignee: Tilmann Zäschke
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: JDO 3.2.2
>
>
> The javadoc of the @Convert annotation claims that it can be placed on types, e.g.
> {code:java}
> @Convert(value = ConvertiblePointToStringConverter.class)
> public class ConvertiblePoint {
>   ...
> }
> {code}
> While this feature is desirable, there is currently no implementation of it in the reference implementation.
> For now, the javadoc should be fixed by removing the section about @Target(ElementType.TYPE,...).
> Once the implementation is resourced (volunteers welcome!) the section can be put back in place.
