Answer 2

I'm not sure if your question is related to Skipper.

If you want to add new datatype to skipper, it's sufficient to add <data-type> element. For complete information, you can check following help site articles:

• http://help2.skipper18.com/en/configuration-files
• http://help2.skipper18.com/en/configuration-file-structure

But if you need a help regarding adding new datatype to Doctrine2, you need to discuss it on any Doctrine2 forum or stackoverflow.
