We're seeing invalid error markers when using the Hibernate @Type annotation where the type value we're specifying isn't actually a Class name. This looks like a bug in JBoss Tools (I have the new Candidate Release installed).

Sample class:

import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.Id;
 
import org.hibernate.annotations.Type;
 
@Entity
public class TestEntity
{
  @Id
  private Long id;
 
  @Type(type = "yes_no")
  private Boolean flag;
}

The error marker states 'Type class "yes_no" could not be found.' but this is actually valid.

I did find some similar cases (JBIDE-11364, JBIDE-11368) in the bug tracker but not one that described this issue exactly.
