Yes, this is completely a pragmatic consideration. I set the build up with generated-src under target because that is what I believe is proper in the idyllic sense.

After having talked to David a few times about this, I believe annotation processing is not the proper way to be generating these classes.

I'll follow up to see if it was ever done. _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
