> I've had this enum class that has character codes that I use in a CHAR(1) field.
> public enum Status {
>     NEW('N'), PENDING('P'), CANCELLED('X'), CLOSED('C');
> [..]
> I didn't want that enum class to introduce a dependency on Cayenne (through the ExtendedEnumeration interface. So I changed ExtendedEnumType a bit so you can support that enum class with just a few lines of code and without using ExtendedEnumeration.
> Please see the patch for an example. I've written a test case for this although this just covers the materialization.
> In the application code I can now simply do this to register the type:
>         node.getAdapter().getExtendedTypes().registerType(new StatusExtendedEnumType());
> (my StatusExtendedEnumType is basically the same as the MockEnumWithCodeEnumType in the patch)
> I hope you find this useful, too. Patch is against Cayenne Trunk.
