Hibernate Joda DateTime Sorting

I am using Joda DateTime and the UserType library for hibernate 4

I have a JPA entity with the following field

@Columns(columns = { @Column(name = "lastUsedDateTimeStamp"), @Column(name = "lastUsedDateTimeStamp_TMZ") })
@Type(type = "org.jadira.usertype.dateandtime.joda.PersistentDateTimeAsString")
private DateTime lastUsedDateTimeStamp;

I am using a normal Spring Data JPA repository as follows:

return repository.findAll(new PageRequest(0, 5, new Sort(Sort.Direction.DESC, "lastUsedDateTimeStamp"))).getContent();

However when I look at the sql that hibernate throws out in the logs it end as follows:

order by
        entity.lastUsedDateTimeStamp,
        entity.lastUsedDateTimeStamp_TMZ asc limit ?

This means that the sorting is not working on the lastUsedDateTimeStamp column as expected, as the "asc" keyword is after lastUsedDateTimeStamp_TMZ instead of lastUsedDateTimeStamp.

Does anyone know how I can fix it so that the query specifies "asc" on the correct field?

Solved this one myself, had to write my own custom PersistentDateTimeAsString and AbstractMultiColumnDateTime classes that reversed the default order of the 2 fields.

timezone is now first in the order and then date time. So the sql now looks like this:

order by
        entity.lastUsedDateTimeStamp_TMZ,
        entity.lastUsedDateTimeStamp asc limit ?
