What sql-type should I map my Point on?

[Sebastien ARBOGAST]

I've gone through the tutorial
(http://www.hibernatespatial.org/tutorial.html) but in the Hibernate
mapping file, there is no sql-type for the LOC column. What should it
be (knowing that I'm using PostGIS for data storage)?

If you are using PostGIS you don't normally need an sql-type  
attribute. If you want to add it anyway, it should be sql-
type="geometry". If your database is complaining about not knowing  
the datatype, then probably you postgresql database isn't spatially  
enabled. Check the Postgis documentation on how to do that.
