Persist an enum wrapped in an interface with hibernate?

Question

I'm using the latest version of Hibernate with Java. I've got three enum types that are being used as property names, each of the three property names go with different objects. There are different sets of property names for each object. Each property name is stored in a map with it's respective property value object, the property value object also stores it's own property name. The issue is that Hibernate can't figure out which of the 3 enum types the interface is, and thus can neither save the enum type nor re-construct it.

I've read the documentation around proxy object and Hibernate Interceptors, my initial plan was to create a -fourth- enum which would identify which of the three other enum types the hibernate enum was and then check that in the 'Interceptor' step outlined here: https://www.hibernate.org/339.html. Unfortunately I wouldn't have the property values until hibernate assigned them, after it needs the proxy object.

Is my best bet to cache all the 'sets' performed by Hibernate until it assigns the 'type' enum, then use the proper enum type from then on forward -in the proxy-?
