I have a project object as with the following variables:

int id
String projectName
String statusName


the freedom to change status text.

Hibernate does not support this, and to get around it I have had to create a view that hibernate pulls from. We like having the status_table look-up because it makes it easy to return sorted lists of projects, while giving us

public String getStatusName() {
        return getStatus().getName();
}
