  extended by org.hibernate.type.AbstractStandardBasicType<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, BasicType, SingleColumnType<T>, StringRepresentableType<T>, Type, XmlRepresentableType<T>

public class SerializableType<T extends Serializable>
extends AbstractSingleColumnStandardBasicType<T>

A type that maps between a VARBINARY and Serializable classes.

Notice specifically the 2 forms:

The important distinction has to do with locating the appropriate ClassLoader to use during deserialization. In the fist form we are always using the ClassLoader of the JVM (Hibernate will always fallback to trying its classloader as well). The second form is better at targeting the needed ClassLoader actually needed.
