title: New Spring Data JDK8 Jsr310JpaConverters not working automatically?
body: <p>I'm trying to use Spring Data JPA 1.8 new jdk date converters.</p>
  
  <p>In my Spring Boot application I've added a config class like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Configuration
  @ComponentScan(basePackageClasses = LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean.class)
  @EnableJpaAuditing
  public class DataConfig {
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is how <code>org.springframework.data.jpa.convert.threeten.Jsr310JpaConverters</code> suggests how to apply the auto conversion. I also used direct package references like <code>org.springframework.data.jpa.domain.support</code> and <code>org.springframework.data.jpa.convert.threeten</code>.</p>
  
  <p>The problem is the jdk 8 date conversion do not happen resulting in sql exceptions.</p>
  
  <p>However, when I apply the converter manually to in my domain class like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Convert(converter = Jsr310JpaConverters.LocalDateConverter.class)
  private LocalDate birthdate;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then the conversion does work.</p>
