Hi,

We used in Hibernate 4.1.9 DirectPropertyAccessor to implement custom access methods (getters and setters) for hibernate properties. How can we implement those custom methods in Hibernate 5.2.12 ?

Regards

Try the `PropertyAccessStrategyBasicImpl` and `PropertyAccessBasicImpl`.

The `PropertyAccessStrategyResolver` can be used to customize the `PropertyAccessStrategy`.
