Hibernate TypeResolver

Answering my own question.

Simple enough when you know how.

configuration.getTypeResolver().registerTypeOverride( LocalDateTimeType.TYPE, new String[]{ LocalDateTime.class.getName() } );
configuration.getTypeResolver().registerTypeOverride( LocalDateType.TYPE, new String[]{ LocalDate.class.getName() } );

The TypeResolver lookups for unknown types use the class name so registering the full name of the class as the registrationKey does the job.
